Those Pay-Day Blues

[I.O.U]

Another payday is just about here

And I have no plans like I once did

Because I've got those payday blues

There was a time not so long ago

When every payday felt so new

Now they never seem they do

It doesn't matter how much I'm making

It's all gone on obligations I don't need

So I just don't know what to do

About those payday blues

Oh! those payday blues

Don't want those payday blues

If it could only be like what it was

When I couldn't wait for each payday

Where no dream was out of reach

But now my paydays only get me down

Because there's nothing left over

And my dreams have to be put on hold

So what can I do

About those payday blues

Oh! those payday blues

Don't want those payday blues.

It doesn't even matter what's coming in

If it could only be like what it was

When I couldn't wait for my pay to get to me

So I could live those dreams I used to dream

But now my paydays only get me down

Because there's nothing left for my dreams anymore

So what can I do

About those payday blues

Oh! those payday blues

Don't want those payday blues.

Good writing. Is it yours?

You’re dreaming about things of no lasting value.

Good writing? No. I'm not finished editing it.

Honing your craft, the work of your hands.

But see all around you the work of his hands.

Honing your craft, the work of your hands.

But see all around you the work of his hands.

So you were in no way legitimately interested in the poem I wrote, or discussing the genre I was attempting to accomplish. Because it always goes back to your beliefs, and only your beliefs. When I say how people's beliefs block transmission of communication, this is how I mean. There is absolutely no way you will ever take in other people's information if you are holding onto a belief.

So you were in no way legitimately interested in the poem I wrote, or discussing the genre I was attempting to accomplish.

I told you you that I thought it was good writing. Those are the words of someone who read and liked what you wrote. Those are the words of someone who is genuinely interested in your poem,man’s in you.

I mentioned in one these threads that I’m a direct descendant of Sir Thomas Wyatt, a famous English poet. I’ve always liked poetry and, I suspect, it’s something I’ve inherited from him.

Because it always goes back to your beliefs …

It will always come back to my beliefs. I can’t separate myself from them, and I wouldn’t ever want to, even if I could.

… and only your beliefs.

See my comments above about your poetry.

You didn't have to say anything about God and his hands (Why did you exactly?) This thread is in the non Christian section, and it's subject a new poem. So why exactly did you have to mention that I need to observe Gods hands?

 

[Matthias]

You didn't have to say anything about God and his hands (Why did you exactly?)

I’m a son of the one God.

This thread is in the non Christian section, and it's subject a new poem.

Yes. I said - and I stand by it - that your writing is good. I like your new poem.

You do realize that I don’t self-identify as a Christian - as defined in Christianity Board’s official statement of faith - don’t you?

By arrangement with the staff, and at my suggestion, I’m restricted from posting in the “Christians Only” sections of the board. They’ve been happy with that arrangement and so have I.

I post here with a clear conscience.

So why exactly did you have to mention that I need to observe Gods hands?

I encouraged you to look around you. I have to be true to myself and to my God.

Likewise, you’ve encouraged me not to have beliefs. You have to be true to yourself and to your agnosticism.

I hope you’ll continue to post more poems. I’m looking forward to reading them.

I was thinking about your poem this afternoon. Have you finished editing it since we last spoke about it? If you have, I’d really like to see it.

I have been stuck with that poem for a long while, so I haven't done anything with it. But I have a new poem I wrote for Taylor Swift. Since I used to listen to her music year's ago for emotional inspiration, and I just felt like writing one for her.

 

[I.O.U]

It's a interchangeable 4 line poem where any line can be rearranged to fit line 1 to 4 and it will still make a complete poem. I may have to create a animated gif of the poem to show that effect.

 

[I.O.U]

Here's the poem in static form.

Title: 8By8

Line 1: You shouldn't have come down here
Line 2: Not now
Line 3: It wasn't the right time
Line 4: Why didn't you listen to you

Have you sent it to her?

 

[I.O.U]

Have you sent it to her?

No. She hates me.

 

[Matthias]

No. She hates me.

Tomorrow's another day.

Why does she hate you?

 

[I.O.U]

Tomorrow's another day.

Why does she hate you?

Because I was being an A-hole about her Christian beliefs, said too many mean things over the phone. Finally she said I don't want to talk to you anymore.

Color me skeptical.

If you send her a sincere apology, and if she is what she claims to be, you’ll soon be on speaking terms with her again.

Can you do it?

I have thought time from time to do that, but I don't remember her Gmail address in it's entirety. It's taylor1... and some other numbers I've completely forgotten.
