Bruuuuuuce!
Such good haiku about Springsteen this week! We had these two from Des:
Hot take— best line in
a song: “You ain’t a beauty
but, hey you’re alright”
a song: “You ain’t a beauty
but, hey you’re alright”
The River makes me
tear up every time. Such sad
quiet hopelessness.

quiet hopelessness.
And IPLawGuy chimed in:
Nor really a fan
Until I saw Springsteen live
HIgh crowd energy!
Until I saw Springsteen live
HIgh crowd energy!
Darkness on the Edge
A bitter album I love
Spoke to me when young.

And then, on a more current note, this anonymous poem:
Who have we become
When "Dude I'm not mad at you"
Is a death sentence.
When "Dude I'm not mad at you"
Is a death sentence.
And more from IPLawGuy:
Music with messages
In our country's DNA
Listen, think and act.
In our country's DNA
Listen, think and act.
kids will remember
Those who stood up and spoke up
Repressors will fade.
Those who stood up and spoke up
Repressors will fade.
And from Anonymous:
Soft bunny ear hat
And his Spiderman backpack
Return sweet Liam.
And his Spiderman backpack
Return sweet Liam.
And finally, and just right, is this from CraigA:
The Boss: Giving voice
and song to wounds, the wounded,
and victims of hate.
and song to wounds, the wounded,
and victims of hate.
