sillyness

Post by sonofthesun »

she said she knew
but it was all makebelieve
when the hammer came down
she didnt know anything
it was all happenstance
whatever and whatever
again
she said she knew
but she didnt know anything
just a wandering child
hoping for a father before death

i know that healing comes in all sizes and shapes- but i dont get this- whatever whatever- death=father- dunno i guess it works for you...
maybe she knew what you meant
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---

well thanks for responding all...im not one to explain what i write...as most things i write aren't straight forward and i go back and forth on certain ways they mean...quick version- this is about a girl who gets pregnant and doesnt know who the father is(2 possibles)...gets a roundabout date and thinks she knows...then gets a different date and its the other way...and its still close enough that either could still be the father ...at the end i could of put birth but i wanted it finite. birth is limitless, especially future birth. and although she never had a father there, its makes it about her unborn child and his future. will either man be his dad? will someone else? many interpretations in my own mind. im not a fan of concrete. and the story hasnt been finished. cheers

thanks Judah. and about the whatever whatever...not a negative, its all encompassing. i enjoy that word although i loath the phrase "it is what it is". i will never say it
