A mask, tiny holes
Breathing heavily
Dancing around my toes
Broad carbon steel
Safe behind my will
Equipment of revenge
Fencing the world with my eyes

I bow, with the morning dew,
 My mind a dual in...

White Picket Fence
I don’t want the white picket fence
I’ll take the one that’s weathered by time
Bent in a way that gives it character
Bordered by tall grass and wild thistle
You might rest your elbows on it after a long day
And smile at the sunflowers I planted
Because you know...

Premium Member Where Is My White Picket Fence?
Where is my white picket fence?
Where is my "someday I'll have it all"?
What will it take for me to find it?
What is more comfortable though than 
the soft cushion of my mind?
When I'm happy with what I've got...
When I'm all I need, no more, no...

White Picket Fence
By Laura

This is my sunset home
Forever here I roam
I can't escape these memories
The waves that throw me in the sea

To rise above the flashback tide
To know there's nowhere left to hide
We only eat from the aimless streets
Statistics seem to see what they want...

His daughter came back
from the wolf pack
and agreed that he should pay...

Crossin the Picket Line In Heaven
There they stand
Swords in hand
The one has crossed their line
They wait so still
Lusting the kill
The one fears his own combine
Halos on the ground
Tossed with a frown
The one can feel the climb
His nation bleeds slow
His angels a glow
With death on their mind
He failed his armada
They stand...

White Picket Fences
Behind the posts and fancy lines, 
a poetess is blue. 
Her picket fence is yellowing 
and hanging all askew. 
~ ~ ~ 
Inside her barbed and wired heart, 
cruel words have shut her in. 
It's perfect on the outside, 
but sorely hurts within.

Thirty feet of white picket fence,
doesn't sound that exciting.
But Oh, to see the blood red blooms,
of a Rambler at one end entwining.

In and out, it weaves its spell,
all but hiding the aged white boards.
The picket fence holds strong and true,
a trellis to the Rose it...

A girls dream of love 
A quest for a man
To know her every whim
And hold her held out hand
The pictures in her head
The dress, the ring, the date
Depending on the man 
Why should she have to wait
The house, the dog , the kids
The white picket...

Christmas Picket
Elves were on strike, it was Santas worst fear
Sick of long, late hours and forced Christmas cheer
Sick of being on shelves
What to give to these elves
When they only work one month in the year....

White Picket Fence
Walking forward,  gleaming back
Thoughts confuse this onward track,
Stumble headfirst,  familiar pit
Advancing on to avoid this hit
Where do I stand in this great mess?
Your life is heavy on my chest,
Where do I find peace of mind?

In the arms of the divine,
It’s in the arms...

The picket fence wore
    
     no fresh paint ... but on the ground
  
           an old apple core...
