Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Tung says
When I first went to college, my parents said they wouldn't pay unless I picked a major that would result in "a good job." That meant they didn't want me to major in English (they said "god you'll be a waitress"--though why that's a bad thing I'm not sure). So I decided to major in Speech Pathology--Speech--English. It seemed like a good idea at the time. It took one semester--I despised it, plus I spent all my spare time moping in the literature section of the college library.
Well, I switched to English (I threatened to drop out, which horrified them even more than a lifetime of waitressing, I guess), and the rest is history. But that's why I know about uvulas, lol.
Oh and I might add, I had a very lucrative career as an editor with that degree--and I never once said "told you so" to them. Of course, I didn't have to, heehee.
it's that little thingy that hangs down in the back of one's throat. So there.tungtied2u said:Welll...if I have to play the straight man....

The fools say, "There's no such thing
as love or truth."
That's because they're judging
all from one experienced pain.
The lovers say, "Happiness will come
to those who wait."
That's because they waited
long enough.
The wise say, "Love and truth are
worth happily waiting for."
That's because they're still
waiting.

from my first concert
the punk next to me smoked pot and threw up on my "dates" shoe. it was the best of times. I knew there was another one in my head
caroline says
Pretty in Pink
Psychedelic Furs
Caroline laughs and it's raining all day
She loves to be one of the girls
She lives in the place in the side of our lives
Where nothing is ever put straight
She turns herself round and she smiles and she says
'This is it, that's the end of the joke'
And loses herself in her dreaming and sleep
And her lovers walk through in their coats
She's pretty in pink
Isn't she
Pretty in pink
Isn't she
All of her lovers all talk of her notes
And the flowers that they never sent
And wasn't she easy
And isn't she pretty in pink
The one who insists he was first in the line
Is the last to remember her name
He's walking around
In this dress that she wore
She is gone
But the joke's the same
Pretty in pink
Isn't she
Pretty in pink
Isn't she
Caroline talks to you softly sometimes
She says 'I love you' and 'Too much'
She doesn't have anything you want to steal
Well, nothing you can touch
She waves
She buttons your shirt
The traffic is waiting outside
She hands you this coat
She gives you her clothes
These cars collide
Pretty in pink
Isn't she

Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Tung says
I have known what a uvula is since a young age
my dentist told me mine was quite strange
I think we all need to respect the rhyming poets, I cannot do it if my life depended upon it.
so my uvula really is crooked.
it bends to the left
health care professionals and others who have seen down my throat eh hem have been entranced for years.
I would take a picture if I did not drop m y digital camera at the disasterous halloween party this afternoon.

anna says
" watch"
and scatters a hand full of photograps
across a persian rug
she writes about them as they land
in no order
but somehow
you see them all
there
on the rug
and they tell everyone
a different thing
like a magic 8 ball
she hides her answers
underneath
