"Coldly smothering the fetus: rebellion"

That'll show those non-feotus-smothering government squares.

The most poignant title ever contrived by a fourteen year old.

Wow, a built in brush-off excuse:

"Don't tell me you dislike what you read
It simply means that you do not understand
The beauty of this free verse
Is hidden between the words"

A new poemranker low!!!

I would have preferred it if the girl's grandfather rose up out of the grave and raped her, filling her with his zombied seed. That would also leave room for a sequel. Quite good anyway.

I think the idea of filing something away would make a good smutty inuendo. Apart fromt that, tedious.

Poorly articulated. E.g. rain is not particularly noted for starring blankly. And were you really smeared over some windows? I suspect you meant:

We stared blankly,
As rain smeared over windows,
Each drop a sentence running away with our words.

Anyway, he was only saying that to get you to hoover the sand out of his crevices.

How ironic.

I reckon this would be about a million times better if you only had the first four verses.
Extract from Jeremy Bentham's Last Will and Testament:

My body I give to my dear friend Doctor Southwood Smith to be disposed of in a manner hereinafter mentioned, and I direct ... he will take my body under his charge and take the requisite and appropriate measures for the disposal and preservation of the several parts of my bodily frame in the manner expressed in the paper annexed to this my will and at the top of which I have written Auto Icon. The skeleton he will cause to be put together in such a manner as that the whole figure may be seated in a chair usually occupied by me when living, in the attitude in which I am sitting when engaged in thought in the course of time employed in writing. I direct that the body thus prepared shall be transferred to my executor. He will cause the skeleton to be clad in one of the suits of black occasionally worn by me. The body so clothed, together with the chair and the staff in the my later years bourne by me, he will take charge of and for containing the whole apparatus he will cause to be prepared an appropriate box or case and will cause to be engraved in conspicuous characters on a plate to be affixed thereon and also on the labels on the glass cases in which the preparations of the soft parts of my body shall be contained ... my name at length with the letters ob: followed by the day of my decease. If it should so happen that my personal friends and other disciples should be disposed to meet together on some day or days of the year for the purpose of commemorating the founder of the greatest happiness system of morals and legislation my executor will from time to time cause to be conveyed to the room in which they meet the said box or case with the contents therein to be stationed in such part of the room as to the assembled company shall seem meet .

Queens Square Place, Westminster, Wednesday 30th May, 1832.

"Is," he cried.
"n't," I added.
"Is"
"n't"
"Is"
"n't"
Are we just toying
with shadows of illusions?

Title suggestion: "Pike County Breakdown"

In High Wycombe, there is a fast food restaurant called Tennessee Fried Chicken. The most hilarious joke you can do, I you're feeling bored on a Saturday night, is to go in there and ask for directions to Kentucky Fried Chicken. Or so I am told.

At 50 you would have to be well lubricated.

A plump -0- for you.

I presume this who you were talking about when you said:

'If you were to ever meet Fraser you would find his swollen corpulent legs so risible as to render your comment redundant.

As it is unlikely you ever will let me describe for you a recent account of him visting his tailor:

Fraser: "I should like a suit please"
Tailor: "And how do you propose I measure sirs legs sir?"
Fraser: "I don't know"
Tailor: "Does sir have a trundle wheel?"'

I find it difficult to believe a man's legs could be so distended whilst the rest of his body is seemingly so unworthy of comment. Perhaps you just have an unhealthy interest in flabby thighs.

Nevertheless, a stirling effort.

The first verse reminds me of the book of Revelation.
