[lit-ideas] Re: Sunday Poem

the problem with history is that honest truth even with a little make up on can seem too plain try imagining for example the good old days when at the finish of a fight whoever it was running his balloch knife through a gap in the other fellow's armor while the hard crowd rsvp'd themselves with glee awarding the other sod's guts and humors bleeding out a standing ovation a generous round of shouting at the level of mental movie this scene is harmless with few teeth in but what it was like exactly how it must have been to sweat that fresh sixty seconds out to catch your breath and let the realization rush that it is you yet lives well then that exact instance i can neither capture nor fake
