Nursery Rhyme-Catcher in the Rye

catcher in the rye
wearing purple tie
watching life go by
asking why why why
.
catcher in the rye
dancing with great joy
hiding a heart which cry
but refusing to lie
.
catcher in the rye
eating pudding n pie
planning how to flee
kiss the world bye bye
.
catcher in the rye
a mirror hung so high
god seeing his own eye
just now, you cant die!
.

Hmmmm....indeed you're obsessed with "Catcher in the Rye". Could it be because you read it again recently?!

Interesting... but when you try to fit your (otherwise raw and uninhibited) feelings into a rhyme scheme, does the result get a little muted?

I like your stuff when you write like you don't give a rat's posterior to what readers may think, and just let it rip... into dark depths. Anyway, Catcher... is a good read.
