I use the Dewey Decimal System
maybe they forgot to feed the meter
What would Lovely Rita say ?
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

I see your meter
and raise you five metaphors
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading

Love that!

... Standing by a parking meter, when I caught a glimpse of Rita, filling in a ticket in a little white book...

"Nuance of nuisance"... I love that. (Leaf wrote that today-- and I'm stealing it.) That's what all the dissection reminds me of. As if working on just so many embalmed frogs instead of poetry.

I mean, you might as well be writing pop songs ... Not that there's anything wrong with that.
