Everybody Must Get Stoned? Poem by Mary Havran

For sure, Mary. Everybody does not have to get stoned. If the governments of the world would actually do their jobs, and put a top to the illegal drug trade, and it is possible to do that, then we would have a wonderful world, like Herman's Hermits sang about. Nice work, and well penned. It leaves the reader with something to think about. Best wishes and hugs, Barbara

Mary, I forgot exactly which numbers were involved, but, it seems to me that women and rainy days were part of it, I would have kept it private, but I guess it's not allowed, Zim is at the end of mine, right now. B.V.A.

A profound observation my friend! It's about choices. Yet Government has a responsibility here. The epidemic could not survive without two key ingredients, sourcing and distribution.

On the spiritual side, man should not convict others for committing adversities in life for no one is perfect.EVERYONE MUST GET STONED! THOUGHT PROVOKING POETRY, A 10.

hehhehehhe... I was expecting something

yes, i do agree.A nice piece

I think we should also remember Dylan's opening lines 'They'll stone you when...' etc etc otherwise the song wouldn't make sense, isn't it? Nice poem anyway.

I really like the statement you make here. I too, think the last three lines are the perfect ending. I always loved to listen to Dylan, and still do(his old stuff) , but much of it I must take with a grain of salt. Honestly, I didn't think about the shape of the writing, but now, it's maybe, even more intriguing. Thanks Richard

Perfect last three lines in particular - an old analogy put to entirely new effect. And I am SO sorry that the first thing that struck me was that the piece is in the shape of a breast. :) t x
