Quoted In The Grove:
Equipped with his five sense, man explores the universe around him and calls the adventure Science.
~Edwin Hubble
There’s no blank spots on the map anymore, anywhere on earth. If you want a blank spot on the map, you gotta leave the map behind.
~Jon Krakauer
As for me, I am tormented with an everlasting itch for things remote. I love to sail forbidden seas, and land on barbarous coasts.

This poem struck me as very Bartalk-esque; enjoy!

Semantics
Seem antics
See, man ticks
Language is the bomb

Prewritten: title, coax
~BarTalk:
The Beckoning
Fighting gravity breaking ground
Coaxed to rise by noonday sun
Grow entitled green and tall
Coached to life by nature’s call
~
New Age
Coaxial present with sexes intersecting
Past and future daily connecting
New rules at work to curb the abuse
And tight’ll no longer be better than loose
~
5-7-5 x 7.33
lies like titles tease
coaxed into lined existence
the story gets told
~
title to new lands
coax the pioneers westward
oust the red for white
~
He titled it She
Tell-all book that got him killed
Coaxed to an attic
~
coaxed to fight again
wrestled for book naming rights
he took the title
~
titled to intrigue
cast to coax an audience
tagline sells the film
~
title mania
coaxed to fight a final round
DOA en route
~
damn near pissed my pants
tie ’til bottom of the 9th
loser buys the cokes
or
loser buys the cokes
tie ’til bottom of the ninth
I take out my card
