Guest guest Posted March 21, 2006 Report Share Posted March 21, 2006 Subject: "Old Man" ~ My 1st "New" Poetry In Years Body: "Old Man" Copyright Russ Mies 2006 Fightin' words came quickly, "So what, if I look sickly?My Dad says, I should knock ya on yer can...'cuz just like me, He's tough, ya see, An' that's the way it's gonna be...Push me once more ~ I'm just like my Old Man!" My teenage years were brutal, When sound logic proved so futile, "My Dad says, that I can't do all I can...He's not like me, He's blind, you see, I'll be so glad when I am freeFrom his G~D stupidity, The narrow-mindedness of my Old Man!" Well, words won't wait, My life's been great, My Dad's gone, leaving me ~ just as I am...Now, it's just me, I'm here, you see, Alone, and yeah, I'm finally free, A writer/poet ~ unfortunately!How could this beThat I am the "Old Man?" I am the author of two poetry books and a new mystery ~ thriller novel that uses some 12 songs from my early, "Limited Edition" poetry books (Beacon and Imperfections ~ that I removed from the marketplaces in 1979). Information on them, other writings, and my issues of interest, are at my personal website: http://MilesBooks.com Comments to: MilesRuss@... ~Hugs~ Russ:)) *Webmasters: Non-adult and non-gaming sites wanted for link exchange.
