ON MEETING AN OLD SCHOOL FRIEND.
Withe old school friends
balanced on
bar stools
or streched on bedsheets in a hero postered room,
littered with worn school books,
shared after-shaves...
amid all the debris of memory
you talk of things in the past
done together.
Girls scored,
women lost.
The hordes of people known
now
going places
while you're still travelling around
your
own
head.
"Yeah" you agree;
"only the disattisified are normal.
So
why do we dress to be different?
Sporting mops on our chins,
exposing the scabs on our knees.

MOST PEOPLE THINK
that
i
am
worth
nothing.
at
least
we
agree
on
something.
That one goes out especially to Paul Kershaw, in relation
to one of his
enteries in another conference. HEY! DON'T LET EM GET YOU DOWN! Read Albert
Camus "the Outsider" and you'll discover most people fell the same as you.
bye.

Not The Stranger?
Please, not the Stranger.
I have read the Stranger four times, all times requried by different
composition courses, once in French!
*sigh*
I liked the one about the bridge, though... The Fall?

Hey I've read that book loads of times and it never loses its attraction for
me
you could be forced to read worse books..Kants"Metaphysics" anyone? "The
Plague" is camus best book though and his "American Diaries " provide a good
insight to his own character and motavation.
hat do you think of the poems?
