That's not a rant!

A man, a man... nay, t'was a tree...

It did arch cross yonder levee,

With knotted limbs and bleaching roots,

a reply to: ignorant_ape

through early morning mists I see

a full day ahead of me

Will I make it? Let's ask Coffee

It says "You will", but not for free

50 cents per K-cup? What a jip

Plus it was too hot and it burnt my lip

Three ducks splashing in their pool, loving life. And I realize I need more of those moments.

He rants in normal threads.

It's only right he should refrain in the one forum he is supposed to get angry.

fresh cinnamon rolls ...and a cup of hot tea

It did arch cross yonder levee,

With knotted limbs and bleaching roots,

Somewhere above an owl hoots.

A day ahead full of responsibilities. Sun rose up high all new and full of cheer, Checked the rear-view to see who was the driving force to meet these obligations, twas only me.

I think the OP is referring to this song. Of course I could be wrong.

Suicide is Painless
By Johnny Mandel

Through early morning fog I see
Visions of the things to be
The pains that are withheld for me
I realize and I can see...
[REFRAIN]:
That suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.
I try to find a way to make
All our little joys relate
Without that ever-present hate
But now I know that it's too late, and...
[REFRAIN]
The game of life is hard to play
I'm gonna lose it anyway
The losing card I'll someday lay
So this is all I have to say.
[REFRAIN]
The only way to win is cheat
And lay it down before I'm beat
And to another give my seat
For that's the only painless feat.
[REFRAIN]
The sword of time will pierce our skins
It doesn't hurt when it begins
But as it works it's way on in
The pain grows stronger... watch it grin, but...
[REFRAIN]
A brave man once requested me
To answer questions that are key
Is it to be or not to be
And I replied 'oh why ask me?'
[REFRAIN]
'Cause suicide is painless
It brings on many changes
And I can take or leave it if I please.
... and you can do the same thing if you please.

... a traffic jam a'thwarting me,
my little one in back did cry
a'missing his field trip he might
the gas gauge crept ever lower
and tempers flared as cars went slower

a reply to: ignorant_ape

Through early morning mists I see,
Crows perched in the old oak tree,
The murder watches patiently,
Occasionally they caw at me,
I tilt my head and then reply,
"I'm not dead yet though many have tried,
Went home hence and to their mothers cried,
Or called their friends and to them lied,
Despite it all I have not yet died!"

Through early morning mists I see,
The crows in boughs of old oak tree,
Look at one another then back at me,
One leaps forth into the breeze so free,
Lands at my feet and then opines:
"Dear chap, we think your style most fine,
In midnight clad, uncut hair greying with time,
You have not forgotten the ancient line,
That bonds your ancestors and mine"

Through early morning mists I see,
The murder fly away from the old oak tree,
And on sable wing my avian friend is leaving me,
To float on the breeze blown westerly.

I've gone blank! Flutes, toots, medley, levee, heavy, shoots, suits, Groot?

...A post-apocalyptic sunshine.

I thought the same at first but 'fog' not = to 'mist,' heh, then wondered if it was part of that Frost poem... then just wrote whatever.

and was going to attempt another verse, but got lost with all the good entries! What rhymes with root... hoot, foot ... snoot?

Through the early morning mists I see
The road stretch out in front of me
Into strange and unknown lands

Out of night in the past lies
The story that shackles, ties
The age worn and crack'd hands

In the glowing daylight's might
Unwritten passages to kite
Float away in fractal chirals

Between tomorrow and yesterday
Grass uncut not bailed in hay
As the limit approach negative zeros

Words fail, nothing left to state
Googles has it number two
Search results, ignorant_ape

An angry ape swinging from a tree.

A gorilla in the midst I see... For Ignorant Ape is a man of glee.

a reply to: ignorant_ape

...the bathroom locked in front of me,
Oh where? Oh where?! Where will I pee?
I'm eyeing you now, office tree...

Give that man a banana! That was good.
