Feelings

by Spike Milligan

Spike Milligan

There must be a wound!
No one can be this hurt
and not bleed.

How could she injure me so?
No marks
No bruise

Worse!
People say 'My, you're looking well'
.....God help me!
She's mummified me;
ALIVE!




Quotes of the Day

Irish poets, learn your trade, sing whatever is well made, scorn the sort now growing up all out of shape from toe to top

• William Butler Yeats

    Life And I Are Fellows
    by Patience Worth
    Life and I are fellows; To me life is no stern companion, I cannot see his frown, I rub elbows with him. I know the prating of men As wisdom or folly, And life and I have an understanding.
