Question: Does a singer's career end when he opens his mouth!?
You Don't Know Me

Grizzly and gnarled
I've walked this land
and played my
music for you

some were great hits
and some will remain
as forgotten
flip sides

but songs I
continued to sing

their lyrics brought tears
to longing dry eyes
some even made
you think

yet still the dance
you seemed to enjoy
as you twirled
on sanded floor

allowing their beat
to speak to your hearts
moving to dance steps
created as your own

stage make up is off
cowboy hat has been tipped
instead of songs
I now speak my mind

devoted groupies have left
the dance floor's now bare
you wanted a singing star
not a man with a voice!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Not bad!. 'Makeup' is one word!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Aha! Just as I suspected!. G-Unfit is TDE!.

(And with these harsh words, Wylie, you demonstrate your willingness to ingratiate yourself with TD's Poets of Mars, despite their earlier hostility to you!. My humorous response was meant in an ironic fashion, to illustrate just how ridiculous was TD's assertion that you and I were the same person!. [Though given the obvious sarcasm of G-Unfit's answer, perhaps I am not so wide of the mark!.] I did not notice you react in such a manner to him!. And thus do you sacrifice your integrity!.)

I hope you notice the tone in my statement when I say that I no longer care!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
