Sheila said,
"but fear not. Thunder is a Teddy Bear LOL I just tell him he's a Grizzly"
Pay her no mind!!! I am a GRIZZLY BEAR! I'm a mean mudda fudda, I eat trash can lids and drink battery acid!
All kidding aside, I feel a duality of spirit like many who are dealing with "memories" unkind. I am however a civilized man in love with a wonderful woman and so the "dark side" seldom visits. When it does I allow it voice in word on page and miles on the Harley. Do I feed the "beast"? No but I care for it because it reminds me that there are those that will hurt you simply for the sake of doing so. Mindless forgiveness is worse than mindless hate because you open yourself to attack.
I have never been happier in my life than since we told the ORG to piss off. You'ld be hard pressed to catch me without a smile on my face.
Thanks for all the concern though. I appreciate the thoughts, and appologize to any who were offended by my "Alone" poem.
Lyin,
I don't know how I would react to having my poetry burned. I figure I would have gone for the throat. I hope you were able to remember them and put them to paper again. I'm glad you have Denny like I have Sheila. Its great isn't it?
XW,
"In fact, last time we were all together we had to sew him up after some of his stuffing came out !! "
You're just still ticked off because of that divet I left in your yard during the sack race! :)

by SheilaM inwell it's come to my attention that some of you took thunders poem literally.

Lyin,
Get some SeaSilver. That stuff has been a godsend for Sheila. Her energy level is back and her depression gone! It has also nearly eliminated her allergies and asthma. You can get a sample bottle on the internet for only the shipping cost, I think around $5 the stuff sells regularly at the healthfood store for $40 but it lasts a month.

Quite good. Usually translated pieces don't retain the flow and meter one language to another.

Damn!
As writer Sheila, I and others are drawn to well penned thoughts and feelings. When they hit close to home as was this instance our need becomes to share with those we feel close to. Subject matter aside for the moment, the writers use of words in rhyme required a certain level of talent. What I got from the poem was a man's pride at being part of something greater than himself, something historic and in most cases respected.
I know we are all at odds over the situation in Iraq, but tearing each other new asses helps nothing.
Pat you quoted this:
The sword of murder is not the balance of justice."
Blood does not wipe our dishonour,
Nor violence indicate possession.
As men have often forsaken the plough and the anvil"
Those words bring to my mind pictures of masked men standing over truck drivers and merchants, threatining murder. Not of uniformed soldiers carrying out the orders of politicians we either do or do not agree with.
Anti-war songs have their place as well. Peace on earth is what I wish for every Christmas. Trouble is not all celibrate Christmas it seems, and the "God" we all pray to is too busy with his pay-for-view and Nascar!
Poetry can be artfully presented politics. I think not in this case. The writer of this poem in no instance expresses that he wants to kill, yet in my poem "Alone" I plainly state that only the presence of Sheila in my daily life stills my hand from actively getting revenge on some that have wronged me to the extent that I feel the need to take their lives, and no one has any problem or was offended by those words.
Its all perspective ladies and gentlemen. You read into things what is reflected in your heart, mind and lives.
Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar.

Hey folks,
Appreciate the positive feed back. Sheila is here, she went to a Phi Theta Kappa thing last weekend and i had far too much time on my hands.
The rage is always there but having a calming influence around holds it at bay.
I think a lot of us would like to "put things right" for themselves i n one matter or another. For now my rage bleeds from my fingers into a keyboard and onto the screen sated for the time being.
