A fruit basket for your... Woes.

It's true I know a lot of great things,
but I'm not great.
Since I have a cornucopia
A thousand reasons to be late.
Because, I'm an artist,
and my poetry's up for sale.
Baby, I'm so peppermint
that I even get high off kale.
Since you broke my heart?
Now I know what a heart is for.
Since you broke my heart,
baby I know, yes I know,
I know what a heart is for
baby I know, yes I know
I know what a heart is for.
Yeah, I've been everywhere
though I can't remember a single thing.
About what I saw or did,
Or even if I remembered the words to sing.
See, you'll have to excuse the fact
that I can't take your beauty in.
And why call it gambling?
If you blew into town just for sin.
Since you broke my heart?
Now I know what a heart is for.
Since you broke my heart,
baby I know, yes I know,
I know what a heart is for
baby I know, yes I know,
I know what a heart is for
Since you broke my heart.
Since we fell apart
I know what a heart is for.

Great lyrics...A lesson that everyone has to learn in time, the hard way...this is a great write...keep up the good work, and many blessings to you.
-
Amazing title... Drew me in like a fly to fly paper. I like the lyrics. We don't know what we have till it's gone... and we don't know how to use it till it breaks. Too true...
Awesome -
I wanted one more verse of the song... good writing.
-
my speakers don't work here, but the song is all there, Horus and I hear it! love the title, love the read! when someday you accept your Grammy award, I'll be there cheering for you behind my TV set back home!

It is a song, that's why the link to the actual song is above and below the poem.

This would make a great song. Great. I don't like the use of the word cornucopia... it just doesn't fit with anything else in this piece. So many simple alliterations are made throughout the poem, cornucopia throws everything off. Its just the wrong kind of word to use in a piece like this. But other than that minor grievance, I have to say I like it. I, too, thought it was going to be harsher, as the title suggested. In that, I must say, I'm disappointed. Otherwise, good piece. Keep writing.

Great job I love it,Awesome lyrics
-
did you click the link and hear it? it sounds better than it reads.
-
Awesome write! I love the title. It freaking rocks. Sounds like something I'd want to say when I'm in those monthly moods. >.> Anyways, awesome. I'll probably go check out the actual song!

This has a catchey title and I was surprised to find that poem read like a song. I thought it was going to be much more harsh, but I enjoyed the juxtapostion of the candy hearts, the wolf attack, the sing song sounds, and of course the "fuck off and die" part.
-
shoot....wanted to give you the applause.
-
Ballsy title!! Like it. Nah... Love it. Just what many would like to say and don't. Now this stinks, cause from what I'm reading, I really like the lyrics. My sound is messed up on the puter. Damn! I'm going to save the link so I can listen after I try tinkering with the sound. Glad I stopped by.

if you click the link you can hear it and it will probably make more sense, it's a song.
-
Fascinating. I don't follow completely but i like the way you use these different words and put them together in a way unlike anything else i normally see. I love the lines
"Since you broke my heart?
Now I know what a heart is for."
That's so true, you may not know before you love someone what it's for, but after they shatter your heart into a million pieces you most definitely understand... -
Because, I'm an artist,
and my poetry's up for sale.
hehe i just loved these lines...they are so clever and snide.
Your style is just amazing....its unique and has a very distinct flavour....
just the way i like it
well done!! i enjoyed the lyrics!! -
Excellent, because I don't polka or Christian rock, so good luck with that, and the sausage.
-
Interesting for sure... hmm... maybe it's just not my kinda music...
All the best, Mandy -
hhmmmm, this song had a smooth sound. I liked the lyrics a lot,keep em comin
-
wonderful
This is my favourite of yours right now , I didn't read everything yet but this is just great. anna -
PEOPLE!!????? This, is a hit song. Mark my words. I've heard it...Tell Horus8 you want this on mp3 - on his website - tell him you WANT TO HEAR THIS.
-
Kale is icky. Great opening stanza though. Cannot help but think that this person is bringing upon their own pain though. Maybe that was the point. Dunno yet, might have to ponder a bit.
-
I actually love portugese kale soup. It's very popular here as we have a big portugese population. Ever had it? With spicy linguica -yum. I'll share my recipe if you want to try it? I'll be back with the real review later. The hearts here make me smile.
-
hmm not bad for someone who is as boring as a fence pole.Maybe things are lokking up for you, "horus8"
-
*gushes*
thats all.
Yours.

I can hear the tune in my mind as I read the words...well written song. I find it very very hard to write lyrics, so I applaud you for being able to do so...keep insipring, and maybe one day we will hear a song you wrote on the radio...

"Since, I have a cornucopia

That is just so brilliant somehow. Great write. It always hurts, it never doesn't. Sometimes there's something to keep our minds off of the pain. At least, that's how I see it. Which doesn't really mean a damn thing, does it? Only that it makes it True.

Pretty decent song write Homer.
And now that I peruse the words, I see the essential difference between you and Johnny Cash - he did remember everywhere he'd gone and wrote a song about it - plus he was married to June and you isn't.
Yah, I'm shuck'in and groov'in with the beat - now I know what feet are for.
-
lol, now tell us how it really is horus....
cowers down for now
-
Everything sounds like you and your X husband? Perhaps, you should just break down and feed him head first to your bear trap.
-
great song sounds my like me and my ex-husband
