"OH HOW THEY DID FLEA"

HI GANG,
This is one of my uncompleated works. I had it finished at one time but loss the entire thing when my computer crashed and I didn't have a backup. I worked on it for almost two years. What a loss it was to me, I cryed. So this is the first part of it. I don't have any idea when I'll complete it again. I thought you might like to see something I'm currently working on. And I would like to get your openion on what you think it means and where you believe it will go from here.

“Oh How They Did Flea”

Oh how they did flea.
Some put the blame on mankind,
some put the blame on Mother Nature,
some put the blame on God,
some put the blame on themselves,
to some degree.
But ALL did flea.

You could no longer see the Sun,
through the darkened skies,
filled with things,
some even alive.
You could hardly breath,
the air so thick.
Yet time went on,
like a clock that tics.
Oh but how they did flea.

The beautiful blue waters,
you could no longer see,
for they turned in color,
even in the seas.
They turned to black ,brown and green,
like a man bruised,
who was beaten down to his knees.
Oh but how they did flea.

The birds no longer sang,
no longer spread their wings.
For in the skies,
there was just too many things.
So they sat in the barren tree tops,
and looked down below.
Knowing sooner or later,
Man would surely, just have to go.
Oh but how they did flea.

They fled from mountains,
into the valleys.
They fled from the valleys,
to the highest mountain tops.
All looking for a place to hide,
but there was no relief,
not even inside.
Oh but how they did flea.

Some fled to the waters,
where large bubbles waited for them,
down below.
Some fled to the skies,
and beyond you know.
In large cylindrical objects,
they would go.
Oh but how they did flea.

Some were chosen to go to be leaders.
Some were chosen to go to be breeders.
Chosen by whom,
no one seemed to know.
Some were chosen for their Race,
some for their creed.
Some were chosen for their Color,
some for their religious beliefs,
to try and preserve,
what was now being destroyed.
why,,, is beyond me.
Oh but how they did flea.

The poor fled from the rich,
for fear of losing the little bit,
they had left and wanted to protect.
The rich fled from the poor,
for fear of having to support.
Having to give any thing,
to any one any more,
just seemed like a repeat.
Oh but how they did flea.

The weak fled from the strong,
for fear of being overpowered.
The strong from the weak,
for fear of their numbers.
The good from the evil,
for fear of being converted.
The evil from the good,
for they knew not where they stood.
All looking for a place,
down below or for a ride up above,
but this was not to be,
for they were not of the chosen few.
Oh but how they did flea.

Hope you like it. Let me know one way or the other.

L-U-A,
Later,
Peter

  2. No sorry not about Vietnam. Good guess. Give it another try.

    Well, Lilly really I should not have to worry about another computer. We will be buying a new one around October or November some time. Mike is going back overseas again for about 4 months. When he returns He is going to order the computer for us because we don't know enough about computers to know what to order for what it is we want to do with it. But it's going to be an awesome one. And I have learned enough about them to know you can buy external hard drives so that if your computer does crash you don't loose any information. You should look into that your self. So it's comming soon.

    Thanks for reading I appreceate it. I want to give any one else who wants to guess at the meaning before I give it away. So check at a later time to find out what this writting is all about.

    LUV,
    Peter

  3. I BELIEVE THIS POEM IS ABOUT DEATH AND WHAT MIGHT OR MIGHT NOT HAPPEN TO YOU. I BELIEVE YOU TALK ABOUT THE END OF THE WORLD AS WE KNOW IT WHICH I BELIEVE IS COMING SOONER THAT WE THINK.

    HOW DID I DO? AM I CLOSE?

  4. Before I read any of the other comments...I think this is a nuclear war which is one the verge of ending mankind. Although some survivors are attempting to re-create man, they are all afraid. It almost seems as though it will begin exactly where it ended again as there is separation of rich and poor, however, the "breeders" are mixed making me think that "all will be one". There will be no more African Americans, Mexican Americans, White Americans, etc.; everyone will be mixed.

    I know that y'all think I'm a nut when it comes to analyzing these things, but that's just what my interpretations are...messed up and twisted. I DO NOT WANT TO BE ANYTHING BUT A WHITE, CAUCASIAN AMERICAN SO DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT ME BEING A SURVIVOR!!

    OK, now I'm read what everyone else wrote...

    Love,
    Ya Twisted Sista, C

    P.S. Before I go...is it really "FLEA" or is it "FLEE"; that would most definitely make a difference in my interpretation and I promise that none of y'all want to hear that one...hehehehe...

  5. Well Celena you are right on the spell check. It should be FLEE. Howerver, I made that mistake on the first one that was lost when my computer crashed, so I decided to keep it that way. I will probably correct it on my final version when I complete the story. Remember this is not the end yet. But thanks for bringing it to my attention.(Snot Nose)(LOL)

    Yep Ronnie you are the closest. Celena was second. It deals with the destruction of Man. But Man is not destroying himself , with a bomb as Celena sugesseted. Man is being destroyed by Mother Nature. I believe Man is too stupid to destroy himself. He is too greedy and he knows if he destroies the planet there will be nothing left for him to gain. So Mans greed will prevent him from the destruction of the Earth. And I do believe there is already a list on who the chosen ones will be. In my story some are chosen to go live under the ocean in glass pods. Others go into deep space where there are space stations for them to live in. And there will be a small number of survivers on Earth. But this is the next part of the story. I don't know when I'll complete it. But some day I'm sure.

    Not to agree of disagree with this but there are many believers that think the Earth will end in Dec. 2012. This belief is based on the callander of the Mayan Indians.(Not sure about this spelling of Mayan.) The Mayans have the most accurate callander known to Man. It also has many predictions with the callander which have become true. The callander ends in 2012. Which is why these believers think it marks the end of the World.

    However, on the other hand, there are those who believe that the callander and it's predictions have been and still is SO accurate that the callander will repeat itself and every thing will happen all over again. Hint: that is kind of where my story will go next. Time repeating itself.

    Celena good idea you mentioned about ever one becoming one race. And yes this is also part of my story. Damn ya'll GOOD.

  8. Another "Nib" to the Bro...he was worried about spelling Mayan correctly but then spells 'CALLANDER'...ahahahahahah!!!

    Now, I know that he's going to come back and say something like...
    "back in the day....that's how they spelled calendar...you know when the Mayans (not sure about this spelling :-)) were sitting around smoking cahounas and making predictions...hahahahahaha!!
