Poem
SPIRAL MONORAIL IN SPACE

spiral monorail in space
going nowhere of importance
cruising in painful dance
having lost the last race

in a galaxy of emotions
ride along between the stars
all action jangles and jars
life's in great commotion

try to deal with love lost
searching above and below
watch disappointments grow
eternally counting the cost

Who can forget the classic words of The Bard Shakespeare :

Oh train of steel and concrete upon high
Whose coming and going mark the magic days
From lakeside lots to castles and the future
Why did they place footers into the ground
if you were ne'r meant to be expanded

Monorails Are Cool
Though They Won't Be Expanded
Bummer, Let's Drop it

There once was a monorail footer...
And no one knew just where to put her...
But it did not matter...
The plans were asplatter...
EO said they were sneezed on by Hooter!

Monorails are red.
Monorails are blue.
But during EMH.
No monorail for you.

Monorails are red.
Monorails are blue.
But during EMH.
No monorail for you.

Very GOOD!!!

Brief Ode to the Monorail

Monorails are so cool,
And no, it's not old school.

Finding footers is neat,
Can't be beat.

Beams are swell,
They support the monorail well.

Bill gave up on that motto long ago.

No; that's about footers. This is about monorails.

Yeah, after he nearly conquered the world!!!!

Walt once said,
There's something about that Ol'monorail red.
When times were apalling,
And corporate plans were a stallin'

Little monorail red,
Stitched from spare parts and constructed by thread.
Putt putt and motion she would,
Powered by an engine that could.

I think future poems should go into the "old" thread. It's close enough to the topic be relevant.
