Poetic Justice

[onedoug]

My Life had stood - a Loaded Gun –
In Corners – till a Day
The Owner passed – identified –
And carried Me away –

And now We roam in Sovreign Woods –
And now We hunt the Doe –
And every time I speak for Him
The Mountains straight reply –

And do I smile, such cordial light
Opon the Valley glow –
It is as a Vesuvian face
Had let it’s pleasure through –

And when at Night – Our good Day done –
I guard My Master’s Head –
‘Tis better than the Eider Duck’s
Deep Pillow – to have shared –

To foe of His – I’m deadly foe –
None stir the second time –
On whom I lay a Yellow Eye –
Or an emphatic Thumb –

Though I than He – may longer live
He longer must – than I –
For I have but the power to kill,
Without – the power to die –

...Emily Dickinson....

That can be arranged.

That was unnecessary. I've been here a while and I'm almost certain that there is NO Maya Angelou rule.

And for the record she's a lousy poet and a lousy shot too.

A take off of the Indiana Jones famous scene.

Why didn’t she just vomit on the door ???

[GeronL]

lol.

You know she had to take a poetshot through the door.

She wrote a poem called “A brave and startling truth.”

” When we come to it
When we let the rifles fall from our shoulders...Who reach daily for the bomb, the blade and the dagger “

Well I say she just contradicted herself by using a firearm.
