I'm just a tin can

I'm just a tin can

A Poem by Muse



























I'm just a tin can.
I'm telling you....
it was not part of my plan.
Tobacco chew,
with gum from your shoe,
caterpillars,
pencils,
left-handed scissors,
snails,
nails,
and yesterdays mail,
car keys,
bees,
the sand and the breeze,
mushy pears,
chocolate eclair,
now I hold a mint flower;
once placed in your hair.

I absolutely love this! Personally I find the creativeness sublime. What talent to take a little can that has sat in so many lives and give it voice. The can that has held the quill of the poet who with never a thought to this faitful conveyance spills the blood of their heart across paper then callously drops the spent scribe int it.

Ah the little tin can! I just love this!

For God's Sake Lady... Don't stop having Fun, because this is great. Pure and simple.

See? I can do short reviews. I don't have to indulge myself in my normal methodilogy of just rambling on, and on and on and on, and on. Nope. Not me.

But if I were going to I'd.... I know that look. That look say's 'shut the intercourse up.' Doesn't it? What a clever look.

OK. It's brilliant. Happy?

Don't underestimate the emotional intensity of this piece! All the things that GIVE you joy, followed at the very end by the single thing that gave you the MOST joy, but is no longer present. A wrenching gut-drop went all over me after the first read, then again after the second, while looking for the funny (without success!)

I like this! It's cute, short, and fun to read! I also like the font you typed this in. :)

"now I hold a mint flower;
once placed in your hair." are my favorite lines! :D
