Oh great South African beached whale
Why do thee cry?
You think you’re beached now
But you don’t have to die
Tomorrow might be a higher tide
Why not for now to relax and lie
Oh great beached whale
Here comes a crazy Thai
Welcome Thai man what makes your drive?
A crazy grin was his reply
Have you met my friend the South African beached whale?
He says he lost his tie
My tie I let him borrow
When he pointed a gun at me oh my
Oh great South African beached whale
Why did thee die?

This reminds me of the time I wrote a poem for English class called "The Box." I thought it was a really profound metaphor for the human condition, but when I showed my dad, he was like "WTF. This is not good and really weird, Mariam."
That was why I stopped expressing my feelings in poem form.
wait a minute Mariam, are you trying to say my poem is wierd?
Ashot, I am completely speechless...seriously, this poem, I have my opinions about it, and I don't feel comfortable expressing them on such a popular forum...please, we need to have a one-to-one discussion tomorrow in class.
Wow, I am in shock as I speak to you...we just got a hit from Botosani, ROMANIA!!!!!!
AHAHAHAHA!!!! How much I love the internet...on a side note did you know...
...that "Large communities of Jewish and Armenian traders were present in this city starting with the 17th century."

I knew the two of us had something in common...my grandfather is from Romania, perhaps he knew your grandfather?
VERY NICE!!!!
Mariam, no comment.
New Rule: There must be a picture associated with each new post. I made it and Ashot says this rule will be enforced. Remember, a picture speaks of a thousand words...
I don't think you've ever been to south africa, or seen a whale... I'm decieved in so many ways by your poetry...
This Friday, at Maumee Indoor: Norbit at 7:15, and 9:30 also Night at the Museum at 9;15...both 3 dolla. Anyone, anyone?
this friday we are going to see The Namesake at 9:40 over at super cinemas
Well, I was reading about it - The Namesake that is, it is a movie about some Indian guy who immigrates, and explores his culutural identity while coming to terms with his immigrant past, meanwhile, falling in love with two women. I just hope there are subtitles.
