Best Epical Poems
QuarantineForty days and forty nights in lock down
Breathless for inhaling my own air ad infinitum
Could be worse if I was left out to dry in the desert
Isolation in my own four walls in solitude
Puffing and panting from the magic scented flacon
Fragrant innocence of lost...

With powers of chaos and psionic flows,

No Dad Should Leave His Family For a MistressNo dad should leave his family for a mistress
and break the sacred marital vows and transgress;
who is selfish and has no love or pity
shall find none when they are sought,
when he finds himself distraught!
I worked in my uncle Steve's body shop,
learning a new trend and...
