Pull me down, Ruth.
Take me there.
I’ll not resist,
I doubly swear,
But go readily,
At thy lure,
Anywhere.
Beneath the table then,
Take me there.
Hmmm.I just thought up another variant.
Pull me down, Ruth.
Take me there.
I’ll not resist,
Your double dare,
But at thy lure,
Go anywhere.
Beneath the table then,
Take me there.
Now I know my poetic skills are abysmal. Frankly, they stink. Hokey, doesn't even begin to describe the vast majority of my output. Oh my goodness, another simplistic offering set to juvenile rhyme! Yet, sometimes if I'm lucky, lightning strikes and I can conjure up something of value. Maybe these words can help jumpstart that process. That would be nice. Until then, I just have to keep putting them out and churning away. (No pun intended - 'a whey'.)
This "woetry" is based on a true experience that occurred inside the former Denny's Restaurant at Serramonte Center in Daly City sometime, one Sunday night, circa 1973 ~ 1975.*
*The only Denny's visit I can actually pin to a specific date was the Sunday night there was a partial lunar eclipse visible in the sky. Using Stellarium, I found that date to be Sunday, May 25, 1975 with the greatest eclipse occurring at 9:48PM PDT. However, I doubt the particulars of the "woetry" (or "woem") happened that evening concurrent with the celestial event.
