Clap Your Hands (Collab)

by ether   Aug 20, 2009


Fly between today and tomorrow,
smiling from the corners of the earth.
spend some time playing in puddles,
am i the dollar determining your worth?
with the mud that makes you happy,
leave your dreams of black and grey.
come and live inside of what is mine,
where back drops determine your day.
lay back on the wrinkled kitchen tiles
carving bible versus into broken lime.
draw your attention to the lettering then,
how did i ever mistake you for the light?
you say, 'i love the way you look at me.'
and it's almost as though i am afraid.
shot like a sparrow out of a widows tree,
where angels piss on my own parade.

    ^^ capturing stanzas... the last line very powerful and though provoking... beautifully penned...

    shot like a sparrow out of a widows tree,

    ^^ loved the imagery here

    where angels piss on my own parade.

    ^^ the ending somewhat didnt match with the overall feeling of the poem... it sounded a little too harsh... well thats what I felt...

    overall a wonderful collab... kudos to both the writers...
