A Pipe Dream
Back on Baker Street - pulling on a calabash pipe. Paganini and Bach stream through a cracked third-story window. The Merseybeat’s… the disaffected Pink Floyd years, Mary Jane brain, mulling over puffing magic dragons; reading Sherlock Holmes secretly. Today, downloading a picture of myself back then, no pipe just a youthful smirk as I strut down that busy road. Sometimes I wish I still smoked....

Queens Pipe Dream
An isolated glare From across the room Suggest me to conclude It will be on....very soon We sit and stare As you lightly tug The ends of my hair The sensation of your lips Makes it extremely pretentious To resist the infatuation That wants to erupt Deep-seated on the inside Like a physician You began dissecting My...

Premium Member Utopia a Soap Bubble Pipe Dream
Utopia, by definition is non-existent and never achievable A Utopian society realized must pop like a shiny soap bubble with rainbow sheen glistening So Utopia is an objective, an aim, a pipe dream of perfection Greed and selfishness will always pull it down It is like how the the mass of an object increases When its speed approaches the...

Pipe Dream
But I ripped them up, Thinking my work was so incomplete, so inadequate. I wonder if I am living in a pipe dream. But since I was a little girl growing up in New York, Always wanted to be a writer or poet. Submitting creative works to magazines, Only with the long envelopes coming back. Rejection with a short note: "We're sorry we...

Up goes the smoke As I light up this Piece of a dream N0---- As I smoke up this dream To later awaken to the reality It's all a BIG mistake!

The team of Richard Rodgers and Oscar Hammerstein displayed prowess. It seemed everything they produced would be a success. There was triumph for some Broadway shows nobody could deny. They included “Oklahoma”, “State Fair”, and “The King and I”. Two more melodious plays that were absolutely terrific were the widely-heralded musicals “Carousel” and “South Pacific”. Along came an attempt based on...

Premium Member A Baseball Fan's Pipe Dream
It is rare when a woman is interested in a ball game. However, your excuse for going is pretty lame. There is not a single fact of baseball you know. You could not tell Babe Ruth from Joe DiMaggio. And that fact unfortunately is just the beginning. Each part of the game is not a “quarter”, but an “inning”. Chalk this...

Pipe Dream
Each and every night, in dream you lay beside me I rub your legs to erase the chill I enjoy keeping you warm While you keep me warm Each and every night, I sleep so well Your smell, upon my tongue I taste It’s a love I know well But not its stories to tell Each and every morning, you disappear Leaving me again,...

Pipe Dream
The old man blows softly into his pipe And the wind he blows floats seemlessly into the night And is swells and grows as he calls to the light But the darkness knows that his calling will never alight It will start and stuck for its ghosts that he calls with his song but the ghost don't hear they eloped...

Living a Pipe Dream
A living tree has been planted to symbolize a life which has taken snuffed out, slained in his prime.Detectives haven't solved the crime.Future basketball star where are you now heaven or purgatory.Your soul needs to rest,shooting hoops,doing lay-ups sweating,running passing stop,go dribble,dribble,stop! screech, halt!. Running the back streets on the late night tip trying to survive on...
