Array ( [sid] => 175259 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => We all fall down [time] => 2013-02-26 01:27:50 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Ring around the rosey
round and round we go.
A cycle of dysfunction
a dark forboding hole.

Ring around the rosey
round and round we go.
Where we all end up
no one may ever know.

Ring around the rosey
round and round we go
not a childhood game
a disgusting messed up show.

Bent and broken
never on the mend
bits and pieces scattered
shattered hearts floating in the wind.

Ring around the rosey
round and round we go
dust to dust and ashes
one more down for the show.

Ring around the rosey
round and round we go
we all fall down and there we are
no fixing anything now.

We all fell down.... [comments] => 6 [counter] => 260 [topic] => 23 [informant] => shelby [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => FamilyPoems )

yup. sure do. Although so far, I keep getting back up. How about you? That first verse sure is catchy. You hear the word "dysfunctional" a lot, but "cycle of... disfunction" takes on a life of its own. Nice work!

I keep getting up too. My very own "cycle of dysfunction" never seems to end. So never ask me for advice. :p

Nicely down, Michelle.
