“So, The Wind Blows?”

[Arachne]

I’ve been waiting my whole life to finally get young,
I hope I’m still here when it finally comes,
and if I am, hope that I am new hung,
so I can sing of it with an unnoted tongue.

Still, my belly’s distended from starving too well,
everyone here’s paying for heaven with hell,
but to me a tie makes you look like a whore,
and I already told them I don’t do that no more..

Now that I’m here, I’m all goose pimp-pel-ly,
I think I am close to who I thought I should be,
thanks for small favors, the should-er is dead,
he went out like a dog, when properly fed.

My food’s always had, that killing effect,
a little more spicy, than you’d probably expect,
I prefer a good truth, that’ll stick to your ribs,
though he often speaks with a tongue that ain’t his.

This time I’ll not go, up to Cavalry’s Hill,
so when it repeats, it won't be me that they kill.
but the past you can't hide, if you'd start new again,
and you can’t sail away, if there isn’t a wind.

Note. The title is taken from the title of a book with more or less the same name "Where the Wind Blows".. It was (the book) a satirical look at the advice the government had given people in the event of a nuclear war, advice that as the book points out was for the most part nonsense. However, the idea of the wind blowing just means that trouble is coming (although in the title of this poem, it also works as a double entendre) probably because the wind that proceeds the leading edge of a frontal system, and following shortly behind it would probably be one of the worst storms of the season. Worst, If for no other reason that the that leading edge could gain rotation and start throwing off tornados, as well as it generally being one of the storms with the highest lighten potential. Personally, I didn’t think this needed explaining, as it is a fairly well know cultural idiom. However, I have been fooled before. The poem on the whole however is not written idiomatically, but rather as archetypal.
Oh, and yes, it was purposeful using "unnoted" rather than "unnoticed".

This poem did require an explanation as it was not clear as to what you were relating. However, even with the explanation, I cannot see how the poem relates. Perhaps my mind is not capturing something or perhaps you could have related it in a form that would not require an explanation. Excuse my harsh judgment, but I call it as I see it. You may wish to judge me just as harsh as that is how we learn. Peace to you.
