Same old rancour (a yellow stream of consciousness) (Free verse) by ecargo Headshots,
back slaps,
one-track crit hacks
tricked out and willing,
winning, spinning--
let the games begin!
(again?)
Pratfallen,
upset the poesies genuflecting
hectoring, dragging your baggage beside,
rag mannered, such a wag.
Rattled prattling
about oh!so!many!things!
jerking and gibbering all over the page
(the light, the dying, the drama, rage, rage)
Another three-card monty--
atavistic vagrants
piddling on the pavement.
Up the ladder:
Ghosts
Down the ladder:
There Is No Such Thing As A Poem

Yes, again! Another toast, another round. Ain't it fun? lol
yes, rockmage is winning. glad you're above it all -9-
Piddling is just what this is.
No idea what you're on about old bean, but I'll give you a ten anyway.
I like pratfallen. To fall on one's buttocks. Very apt.
Utter bollocks except fore the bit about pissing.
Hey there ecargo, I wasn't going to sign back to poemeranker but I saw you about and thought I'd say the hellos. Long time no speak, how's the kayaking?
Hiyas Ranger! How's it going? Still in lovely Wales? I'm going to be there in April (hoping to get some paddling in Pembrokeshire if time allows; crazy water there)--also hoping to talk Z into Eisteddfodd (however the hell it's spelled) later in the year. Who knows--we may have to track you down. ;-D
Kayaking's great--love the off-season. Gotta run, but hope you'll stick around a bit--I'm just back myself; we'll see what happens. Hope you're doing well! How's uni?
I'm back in England until the end of the week (working again over the Christmas break) but I should be in Cardiff in April. Lots of friends to visit as well, so I expect to be much more well-travelled by July. Uni's going really well and I finally have some direction career-wise (hurrah!). It just requires the year to finish as it started and for the teachers' union to not bring about armageddon. Let me know when you're about again, we'll chat then :-)
