    watch it roll off his tongue

    like rippled water
    like the movement of a woman's backside,
    like steam jumping off the streets,
    like seven days of creation

    this motion is broken down,
    bottled up,
    labeled,
    and put away in scripture

    into words, sentences, paragraphs and stories
    colors formed, burned and mixed

    all of this came a world, a country?

    the red of Winter's cheeks,
    the white in her eyes,
    and the blue straight off the wick

    American flag feelings roll out city windows
    smooth and calm
    liberated and peaceful

    but the weather doesn't always laugh
    It's the bloated gut of war,
    and the mind of the underground
    something we can't configure . . .

    Why did he make her so hard?
    Why do the insides of her have to be so cruel?
    Why is their failure?

    city streets where motion is non-existant,
    parents who don?t care and children who go too far,
    minds that are never put to rest,
    bodies that are buried, names that are erased,
    actions that turn out sour and words that are never spoke?

    all because of him?

    He must be questioned?
    The creation of her?why doesn?t her ground give?

    It's when she flashes her canines
    and flexes her skin

    that we see a different side of this country.

    Talking

    I really liked this.... flashes her canine's... that part caught me.... gripped me, held me, then spit me out. I just imagine it, mild mannered, then WHAM... evil when pushed, down right bad assed. I like it... good job.

    really not sure what its about...at first when i saw this question i had a bit of an answer but i don't remember any more....i see the her as an american entity...not someone but more of a something or an idea, something the symbolizes a piece of the author's life. it seems that the author is abusing this entity...which isn't a person but i'm not sure what it is. the entity is a piece of him,...a piece of his being. i'm not sure what any of this means but that was my thought.
