You hurt me so much
You ask the impossible
Shakespeare doesn't help

pretty weasel boy
a begger asks forgiveness
of unswayed 'roo rat

hearts hurt all around
double edged dagger is choice
who will be cut next

really crisp dark lines
pretty shading on weasel
gloria draws neat

angry is keer
love and mercy own him not
hurt deeply he is

"In the clearing stands a boxer and a fighter by his trade and he carries the reminder of every glove that laid him low and cut him 'till he cried out in his anger and his shame. . . I am leaving, I am leaving but the fighter still remains. . ."

Sweet lyrics! What's the name of that song? I wanna check it out.

"The Boxer" on the album "Bridge Over Troubled Water" by Simon & Garfunkle (as has been previously mentioned.)

I'm not sure what's going on here, but I did quote "The Sound of Silence" a month ago.

*ponders a furry Shakespeare* Now THAT's something I'd like to see...

Woo. That's a nice one. But I'm afraid it doesn't talk about cherry blossoms, so it's disqualified. :)

Acting all tough,
Keer isn't fooling anyone.
Not even himself.

Keer and Snitter make a cute couple, but it would end badly, with him in prison and her in the hospital, I think. He'd try to make her angry or sad, because that's what he does, and it wouldn't work, so he'd get all frustrated... or maybe he'd give up and be normal. Who knows?

And you don't seem to understand,
A shame you seemed an honest man
And all those fears you hold so dear
Will turn to whisper in your ear

And you know what they say might hurt you
And you know that it means so much
And you don't even feel a thing
I am falling, I am fading, I have lost it all...

Sorry about that -- must have lost it in the noise. This board can be quite active to the point of overwhelmingness y'know.

Or quiet to the point of death. So I've noticed. :)

My modern musical knowledge is limited at best. I know *of* songs, but for the most part can't tell you who, much less when, where or why! :)

Poets, priests and po-
liticians have words to thank
for their positions.

Words that scream for your
submission, and no one's jam-
ming their transmission.

When their eloquence
escapes you, their logic ties
you up and rapes you.

A-doo doo doo, A-
Da da da, is all I want
to say to you. Hee!
