    The Native Americans sold popcorn as they watched the battles.
    Popcorn, whose manufacture was handed down to them by the Greys.

He made the poem to be a dialogue between him and the fever, the described his fever as a shy lover who only visits at night, gave him so much pain and so much pleasures, gave him highs and lows, and in the morning no trace of his lover is found.
        I recall WH Auden who attributed most poetic inspsiration to Influenza - wais it Yeats or Colleridge who was continually ill ?

        Anyway - Ive got it all here in my head - all that remains to be said is -

        Look at the Sky
        Look at the River
        Isnt it Good ?

          My fiancee can't stand peppers - which is why we don't buy them.
          Mind you, he doesn't like salads (or vegetables much) either. The vegetables he eats are potatoes, peas, baked beans and spaghetti.

          It's probably because he's an ex-chef.
