There can be justice without any peace but there can be no peace without justice. Wyatt Earp should have said that. But I did. There’s a new marshal in town yip-a-ty-yee.

i just discovered Tom Waits recently {{bad, bad me}} and am completely worshipful of him.
stating the obvious but this definitely brings to mind the falling/failing of empires…

haha. your comments to yourself are fabulous. i love how philosophical you get in some of these pieces. so thought-provoking.

and thank you. i saw what you put about one of my pieces on google reader. i may just print it and keep it nearby for one of my terrible, self-doubting days.
I meant every word, Lissa, whoosh, just like that, right past me,

Thankyou, this comment stream is really useful to me. I can get a grip on the kind of flowon effect out of the poem and I honestly value it when people say I didn’t understand or i didn’t get this or that because there is no point writing if noone can understand. Especially writer reading, perfectly named and you have defined a problem common I think, in that if I make say the musical reference too popular and well known they don’t really say much that people don’t aready know, if i make them too esoteric i am only talking to a very few people, so maybe they are only acting as advertisements for the music, or even just myself, again, never mind as i say, i don’t blog i am trying to make something, a wordmachine that works, i freely admit to being as mad as a whilrlygig, so no harm done,

Don’t get the musical references, but I like the message and the way it is phrased and flow of sounds and the concrete sound of the slamming the glass and the visual image of the doffing of the hat.
