A Poem
I ask the reader to forgive My bout of poetry, unfathomed. - It is not possible to live Without occasional emotion.
This poem is like a bird in motion, Its nest at 2111 Latham. It flows like milk, all white and pure, No secret can this poem secure.
The poem should not beg for applause The audience - it shouldn't matter. The poem does not serve any cause, It should not genuflect or flatter. Nor should it rave and stirr up flames - It's not a furious insurgent.
The poem does not fit in the frames Of our mundane and crude existence. The poem can leave at will. For instance, It left me now. Perhaps some urgent, Important business called it back.

Alexei...
Your new signature is SCARY!! (Very!)
How 'bout this instead;
"Withered hands, withered bodies begging for salvation. They are what used to be the Bush Administration Nations cry with joy underneath the clearing skies 'You are guilty, the punishment is death by all who live! The punishment is death by all who live!'"
I like that better ;D.

It's actually from a song by Iron Maiden, so I can't change it. I just couldn't fit the "by" part in... ;D Hmm...but that version works also.

Yes that is funny I think. By the way, how did you come up with 2111 Lantham? Is it an actual street?
