Bigmouth


I Told You... ~ Joe E

You spoke your mind one time too many
Upset the applecart of accepted views
They stole your shadow
While the sun was in your eyes
Crept away to stitch it to the moon
Her ashen face now presents itself nightly
To the side of you that you cannot see

Darkside of a self too transparent to cast a shadow — reminds me of some NASA footage of the moon wherein huge glass structures appeared as shadows on the surface as their angles of refraction were crossed by the orbiter.

Yodood: moon landing: real or fake?

9/11, real or fake? UFO, real or fake? Marijuana kills, real or fake? Jesus saves, real or fake?

We are shown nightly on the side of us that will not see.

There are many who cannot see from either side. Luckily for me, I choose not to view the big picture...

Yodood: hehe television projected nightly onto our arses (asses) - now there's an image that makes perfect sense :D

Subby: there's a big picture???? where???? is it framed????

Pisces, there is no frame to the big picture; for nothing as big as the media canvas, can be framed...

I have no need to see the dark side from afar. i have taken residence there where the shadows are not long cast.

Garth said...

Subby: we've all been framed, packaged and delivered to the feet of mammon :)

Walking Man: move toward the light a little, but mind they don't steal your shadow

Word Verification - clear - :o
