  1. Kings of Leon's single , "The Bucket" sounds simliar to U2's, "I Will Follow" song off their debut album Boy released in 1980. I believe they ripped off U2 in the regard. If you want good modern rock, listen to Acceptance their most recent Album Phantomsis surprisingly good for a modern rock and roll outfit.

    Canary in a Coalmine-The Police

    Album: Zenyatta Modatta

    Year: 1980

    This catchy folk song written by Sting. Miners would send canaries into the unknown perils of coalmines to ascertain whethe or not the conditons were adequate for miners to work there. If the canary did not return from the mine, the mine was deemed dangerous and work would be postponed to a later date when the mine was thoroughly cleansed

    What a Drag

    Never Full for Kelly and I

    As tourists toss an empathetic sigh

    She vacantly gazes into the western sun

    As I ask myself what can be done

    An ailing Kelly

    And an unfed belly

    Engeneders the tale of my failing

    Milky twilight splashes us

    Kelly, chokes, “Troy, will I bite the dust?’

    No, Kelly you’re doing well

    As I request God to spare her hell

    “What’s the price for happiness any how?â€

    Two more shillings than we’re making now

    This money constantly evades me

    There must be something to save me

    And Kelly God Damn it!â€

    From this curable ailment

    But You Strike me down

    Back down

    Upon this dusty lane

    With two dead ends

    Without an opportunity to make amends

    Strewn with empty beer bottles

    And emaciated Youth

    Please God, Tell me the Truth

    Will Kelly Die?

    And reside along the poor roadside

    For the rest of me years

    to lament Kelly’s youth with guilty tears

    Of potential careers, memorable cheers

    We shared together

    An amber robe of morning mist

    unfurled across the sky

    I gave Kelly a kiss

    and bid her farewell and tossed a sigh

  6. Emily

    your alacrity

    is a spirit is too prfound for me

    let me go

    let me loose

    from this tightening noose

    Celebrity, Gossip, Emo

    is the path you show

    day in

    day out

    without a whim

    without a pout

    next thing

    ebullient

    what'on

    what's new

    did anyone watch the news

    A blemished story

    a stained image

    of friends in the village

    your're alphabet is alien to me

    CNN CBS NBC

    these letters are misery

    Lib or let die

    is the sloagan that i cry

  7. Were Going into the Sun

    The sun painted the asphalt

    The sun splashed the water

    The sun encompassed the bluff

    Le soleil a chaud

    C'est partout

    Où l'endroit cachant est ?

    It dips down behind the mountain

    It rises confidently like a fountain

    Sein Kommen

    Die Schatten

    The elusive Dark is an unending mark

    Of tranquility and thought

    The Light is bright

    But never out of sight

    Till the stark is regrettably broken

    Ele me queimará

    It will burn me

  8. Vagabond Virgin

    Are you ready to fly ?

    Are you ready to leave me?

    Are you ready to cry?

    Vagabond Virgin please depart

    Before destroy my already broken heart

    Where will you go?

    What will you see?

    A reflection of me in South China Seas

    or the ripple that clouds the image

    Be Good

    Be well

    I hope your travels spare you hell

    And elevate you to that better apartment of life

    That I vie to visit throughout my years of strife

    I writhe in despondence

    And they offer no lament

    And you are back on the high bridge

    And I am in the tunnel

    The tunnel is good for I will get to the other side

    The bridge is sturdy, but you are not

    Don?t fall of the edge

  9. Point Taken jr. I am not a conceded person and I am not hypocritical writer. I should not have compared myself to the venerated Jim Morrison. Moreover, If I have to evince my message after writing a poem I must be a a poor writer. Its time for me to change directions too a more accesible poetry/songwriting.

    Aprreciate your thoughts.

  10. Cult Following

    Will follow music without a Melody

    And a face without a voice

    An eternal pill of ecstasy

    For a distraught People

    Engenders despairing frews

    Shuffling, conversing amongst themselves

    Searching for a tastier stew

    That brings something to delve

    Follow You Follow Me

    Is the slogan of our plea

    To enter with uncertainty

    And exit the pack with glee

    The music sounds better than before

    The songs were twice as long

    And they meant something more

    Contemplated the Message

    Withdrawn from the throng

    To act so Wilde

    Is to mute the song

  11. This is a the inception of a longer piece of writing, however on the advice of jr. I expunged the remainder of the piece. Hopefully, it will receive more accoloades than the initial one.

    I search for pleasure

    And bury treasure

    I vie for the everlasting happiness

    And dig a deep hole

    I carefully place this hefty chest in this gaping fall

    And lower it slowly and protect its soul

    I shove dirt upon this fallow ground

    Until it reaches the brim

    Walk away

  12. Okay. Of course I will think my writing is good. I'm the writer for goodness sake. Apparently, I do dismal job conveying my message if I have to evince the message after people read the poem. For example, in Romeo and Juliet Mercutio ( Mer prefix for stranage, unusual "mercurial")sheds light on the fact he may be gay. There is a tacit understanding throughout the play that he may be a homosexual as evident by the Tybalt, "Thy consort with the Romeo." I have to go back to the writing board again I guess. Any alternative suggestions besides the one mentioned above? I am more of a poet than songwriter. Im closer to a Jim Morrison than to a Robert Plant.
