Run For Your Lives--Them's Fightin' Words

How long I've ached; how deep the sore! My albino Soul- suffers blisters... For with myself, I am at War Run for your lives- Poetic Sisters! Dodge the bullets; avoid the mines- Watch the sky for falling bombs! Oh, worry not, for all is fine- It's just a little Napalm :) Hydrogen, he's just a friend- But atomic at his center Radiation, Tunguska station- Do not fear (it's safe to enter...) The fray; the fight Fought day and night Unending battle- forever addled (And no end in sight!)

Excellent!! Your style is similar to the styling of my father.. Richard Pickett, I believe he is still on here. Your poem flowed and kept my intrigue. The last verse was spectacular.. Good work my friend.Asavvy1

Chan This is a strong piece that is well written and makes the reader see the ideas you have coming from your soul. Great job my friend I'm glad my Old Habits poem you could connect too, hopefully in a good way. Hugs
