Sung to this tune http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VMSGrY-IlU

A nice, bluesy feel to this typical tale of love lost along the way. Read this without listening to the tune, so a good sign that this holds up well on its own.

The person I wrote about, I could only hope he realizes the error of his ways, because he is leading her down the path to no future. Thanks for the sequel! It gives the possibility of her waking up to his way of life pulling her down. She never gets what she wants, and he is always so happy when he plays people.

Wow! to both the song/poem and the dialogue it generated!

Hillbilly Radicals that Kingston Trio! Didn’t ‘M.T.A’ have one of those ‘explicit lyrics’ albums? – Like the song, love the sequel.

Very sad. I like how it successfully depicts both his errant belief that she’ll be better off without him and how he has wronged her.
