Because I'm not always silly. =)

Here are the words, in case you can't understand me. I know I was kind of quiet and I tend to read fast. This piece purposely doesn't follow any "normal" form.   more...

Title: Silly Boy
By Krista Marie
Date Written: December 8th, 2006

He's frustrated and debating
If I'm worth his heart.
He's simply tired of waiting
So he picks me apart.

In his mind, I'm not me.
And he's built me up to be
The girl who's going to save his soul
And a girl who thinks she's beautiful.

I find that we're both incomplete
Missing vital pieces to function properly
But before I go and admit defeat
I beg him one last time to "wait for me".

Can't keep up, he's moving too fast
My beautiful boy's pain is too vast
Always stopping to wonder if we'll last
With one foot in the present, and one in the past.

POetry reading by David Hart Constantly Risking Absurdity
by Lawrence Ferlinghetti

Constantly risking absurdity
and death
whenever he performs
above the heads
of his audience
the poet like an acrobat
climbs   more...on rime
to a high wire of his own making
and balancing on eyebeams
above a sea of faces
paces his way
to the other side of the day
performing entrechats
and sleight-of-foot tricks
and other high theatrics
and all without mistaking
any thing
for what it may not be
For he's the super realist
who must perforce perceive
taut truth
before the taking of each stance or step
in his supposed advance
toward that still higher perch
where Beauty stands and waits
with gravity
to start her death-defying leap
And he
a little charleychaplin man
who may or may not catch
her fair eternal form
spreadeagled in the empty air
of existence  less
