Third Row

Has anyone seen a heart,
looking for its owner?
lost mine short while ago
jilted in the third row

before the finale
notch seven, her tally

Has anyone found a heart?
Surely no one wants two
knowing what hearts go
through, unless one takes
them apart, her main feature
from the start -- 

Please, someone call the Maitre D 
with a flashlight for losers like me -- 
been dropped like popcorn, gummy bear,
paste ponytail clip, fake long blond hair

loudly she laughed, maybe spritz of pee

where Barbie sat, another downed today

cleanup in row three --

Joe Maverick Date: 8/10/2024 11:27:00 PM Hi Joe A GREAT GOOD DAY TO YOU IN JESUS NAME!! When it comes that is.' In the meantime Don't get down..In this temporal inaneness That is of some (world reknown) For eternity is Our home..We are here for just a while, when We are skipping through Gods galaxsys maybe We"ll create some things really worthwhile? I'll See you on Uranus when fifty decades are gone past..We'll Start another universe..That should give our God a blast.!!

Thank you Joe. Blessings.

Tom Woody Date: 8/4/2024 2:26:00 PM I thought I saw your heart at the corner of main and third. Flirting. Again. Poor chap Login to Reply Joe Dimino Date: 8/4/2024 3:11:00 PM I gave it talking to, many times -- but poets seem lyrically never to take heed. What the heck. Popcorn is still reasonably priced. Blessings my friend. Over to see your latest.

Paula Goldsmith Date: 8/4/2024 1:56:00 PM I enjoyed reading your fun/creative "Third Row" write. When we give our heart away, this can be what will happen. Mine was on row four. Hahaha!!!! Next time be very careful... Have a blessed day writing away.....................

Blessings my friend.

Mystic Rose Rose Date: 8/4/2024 1:24:00 PM ah, so creative, you had me at the theatre of heart break'ville, Barbie is way over rated Joe, :) Login to Reply Mystic Rose Rose Date: 8/8/2024 2:25:00 AM looks fade J, bought brains, well they churn til' the day you die, and the heart, well, thats a matter of itself, fill it with love and none else Joe, xo Joe Dimino Date: 8/4/2024 2:02:00 PM Yea, I know...but she was cute. Worth a lot more now, #1, then she was back then. Love it. Thank you, Vie, and she couldn't right a line of poetry. Gees, what a mistake that would have been!

Silent One Date: 8/4/2024 12:24:00 PM Have you still got your mind? sometimes its more important, as it helps you get over things and think rationally.. well not always.... Been dropped like popcorn... interesting description..
