Strings (poem) by efosanice: 3:38pm On Feb 05, 2010 |
I’m pulling the strings of a guitar Learning to play a nice tune And i remember Its just like me What you pull is what you get How long you pull lasts that long All the times i was out of tune Were all those times you were Pulling my strings wrongly So this time Pull me gently Pull me nice Keep your fingers on the strings Pull me long Father kept on pulling And she lost all her hair He had seen her with a boy And thought she was too pretty The only reason she gets attention And all the neighbourhood wants to have her Let the hair fall off Let the beauty fade And this time she is out of tune Cos these are the times Her strings being pulled wrongly Mother wont be home tonight She’s working late She always does Grabbing the pole Showing the men her fry And them men keep pulling At her panties, Cos they’ve got to see her pussy And they pull so hard it snaps See mama, its show time And this night she is out of tune Cos tonight the alcohol Is pulling her strings wrongly You can pull me hard You can pull me soft Whatever you do I will not snap Cos i know those times i was out of tune You simply moved on To pull another wrongly ©November 2009 |

Your poems are beautifully written, I love the comparison of the human emtoions with the strings of a guitar, you've got a great sense of imagery. well done! |

@ efosa: Your poem's a very good one, I like your descriptive ability. However, your 2nd and 3rd verses seem out of sync with the 1st and 4th, prolly cos of the switch from 1st person to 3rd person. A good poem altogether though. |
