twenty six miles away
and i still want to be
one of the class clowns, and
if only i could stop
the lion tamer from
his sad and wandering
ways and go back to the
broken fence where we first
escaped from uncle john
and the first law of the
blue roller coaster while
the clown cried twenty six
twenty six miles to east
st louis ladies and
gentlemen before the
white merry go round stops
forever and all the
red horses run away

Great poem...especially with the added art and color in the decor. Nice touch.
Timmy,
Fine poem with a flowing rhythm. It is also great that you added your personal artwork here.
Thank you for being an administrator. I am glad to have you here.
jenny,
thanks for the invites. looks likes the page is off to a great start.
i think allowing crossposts is a big plus.
Timmy,
Lovely cadence. I don't know your intention, but being a lifelong midwesterner of USA, I surely know a few lion tamers. Be you anything but a hero, you will be tamed here.
Oh, the flinging consequence of systems (merry go rounds) that produce so much anarchy and self organization. "Red horses."
Adieu.
I'm afraid I was tamed long ago. I was never a lion, though.
Great poem, Timmy.
