June 1989 - page 3

1.

an historic event is created

then one can demonstrate

and without the event there 

no established precedent.

2.

the suckers were removed and

put in fresh soil and are droopy

in the morning because of bugs,

one cannot grow without knowledge.

3.

if their ability to handle

moneu is not up to par

at least their politeness is.

4.

we were foolish teenagers

who tried to possess an

attitude that could only

be derived from scars.

5.

holidays put the worst of us in

good spirits knowing that going

down is what we're headed into.

6.

it was no issue

not to those of us who knew

it was tyupical.

7.

there were baby pictures

on the wall...  everywhere,

and no parents in sight

to wtch over and no reason

to do anything more.

8.

twenty seven and seventy seven

shooting at birds through a window,

a little kid hides in us at any age.

9.

lovers live in my mind

like a ping-pong game,

once the score is reached

a new partner is found,

feeling bounce back and forth

across the net sometimes

with english and sometimes not,

yet one must always win by two.

10.

all in all

these younger kids

look less

formidable

than we were

at that age,

but their outward

appearance is

considerably

more developed.
