joe, I don't mind, it's interesting to see how you would've done it. there are some places I would rather have the way I did them, but there are also lines, like the one mentioned above, where your suggestions are a lot better. thanks for that!

I don't have the mind for it right now, but I'll surely think about it later and let you know if something worked out.....

thanks:)
cheers,

Joe

Sue

There is something peculiar about my perception
Things take on shapes with no criterion
No algorithm to what they really are
They seem spherical, but they're spectral
An illusion of the mathematical mind

Sue me for my lack of faith in symmetry
That has me circling like a vulture above
A tangle of thoughts
In an attempt to find cause and effect
Merely confusing the threads even more

Sue me for my inability
To get any closer to what you mean
I tried completing that sketch in the drawer of your desk
But my confusion shows eventually
In the irregularity of the lines from my hands trembling

But you have always known
What you were getting yourself into
You say you didn't, but I think you knew
You know me now, don't you
Of course you do

sue

There is something peculiar about my perception
Things always tend to take on shapes that fit no criteria
No algorithm, no binocular sees what they really are
They may seem spherical, but it's spectral, spectral
An illusion of the mathematic mind

Sue me for my lack of faith in symmetry
That has me circling like a vulture above
A tangle of thoughts,
In an attempt to sort out cause and effect, but in fact
Merely confusing the threads even more

Sue me for my inability
To get any closer to what you mean
By saying “At night, the rats are sleeping"
I tried completing that sketch in the drawer of your desk
To realize my confusion shows eventually
And if only in the irregularity of the lines due to my hands trembling

But you have always known
You knew what you were getting yourself into
You say you didn't, but I think you did know
You know me now, don't you
I'm Sue, Sue suing herself for her lack of grasp

it's more of a draft than anything... especially the last line of each of the last two verses. anyway, I'm still very busy so I thought I might post now in case I won't get around to it later.
so here it is.

comments appreciated as always.
cheers,
