new demo!

Written by Thad's great-uncle many years ago. Thad, as we speak, is likely wondering how to fix all his egregious problems. I've got ten dollars on "will let more pile on"......


Build Chamber For Man From Netherlands


I have heard of a chamber
That waits in a lab
To keep me from finally
Breathing my last,
But my family and friends proceeded to laugh,
"It is simply a rumor.
That's all that it is."
So I call to the labs
And advanced program kids...

You must build me this chamber for once and for all.
No, I will not blow smoke
Or dense fog.
For I need myself here to sort through all my notes
And I am not convinced of God or ghost.

My country dreams this from time to time.
Only I'm the Dutch
Who believes in such
And I know the world isn't so much in love with me
That they'd build
What I dearly feel
Must be done.

All of my jugglers
From Oostberg to Tiel
Have told me their judges
Will promptly reveal
That the verdict is down and can't be repealed.
I value their strength
But their sense I have tossed.
I have faith in the form of an
Ignorance lost.

You must build me the chamber for once and for all.
No, I will not blow smoke
Or dense fog.
Like with the paper clip,
Like with lathe,
You felt no use for them.
Now you do.
You have your points to hit.
No time to do it all.
This is the greater good
And it's slipped your mind.

Everyone's kicked these fancies aside.
Only I'm the Dutch
Who believes in such.
While we all could stand just a touch of the practical,
Grant one wish
For this chamber-less
Human being.

my attention

It's come to my attention that I've initiated several recent mistakes. I do not apologize. Liken my maneuvers to silver ginger on the careful fix.



You Look Of Gold

They walk past the clerk.
And they aren't adequate, though I want them.
But I won't wreck what I don't have
To get them.

You look of gold.
You are the standard.
Bare all at the hearing.

Victory, not elusive
But I evade it
Out of latent weakness
Which I will pass on to others...
Then forget.

You look of gold.
You are the standard.
Fall thin on this never.

You look of gold
To a breath taking hold.
You are the standard.
Bare all at the hearing.

sorry

<-<-<-<-<-<-You Look Like Always>->->->->->

As I walk left,
And as I don't,
The ones around tell me in transit
That I look like always.
The pace that I get
Set to no feet
Gives off a radiance to admit, though I change,
The false holds dominion
For I look like always.

Steam engine work.
You're taken away.
Can't be retrieved by someone who dreams of you.
Look what I've done.
Look what's asunder.
No longer we wonder how
You look like always.
You look like always.
