Poetry Play Thursday


The textyladies have done it again.

What an interesting prompt.

Pictures are forthcoming.

I grabbed a friend--tore a page out of an old book I have had ideas of altering anyway, tore out an auspicious page (page 444 to be exact) and gave the girl a marker. A yellow one. Told her to highlight certain words, whatever she liked.

All I did was take a super sharpie (that's what it says on the side anyway) and marked through everything she hadn't.

Here is what we got:



gulping first drinks...
reluctance...
tolerance...
loss of control...
piling up...
impotence developing...
intensity of female orgasms...
erections are weakened...
stimulates...
destroys...
killer...
never be cured....
no one ever stops...
there is only one solution...
fellowship...
stay sober...
immediate help...
do something about it...
anonymity...
people come and go....
no questions are ever asked...
one day at a time...
if we feel the urge...
neither yield nor desist...
put off taking...
until tomorrow...
nor does it solicit or accept outside funds...
hat is passed...
