Premium Member Romantic Tangles
They were loyal sisters.
The older
was also more fair,
prettier in an Original Barbie kind of way.

She had been sick
when her younger,
darker,
more tomboy sister
met and first desired
my tall, dark, and handsome Uncle.

When older and fairest of all Sisters
returned home,
after a long healthcare absence,
she too desired Uncle Handsome,

Premium Member What Tangles You
I don't know what I want to write
But I will write about irritating 
Do you get irritate when people give advice 
when it is not needed AND you didn't ask for one
I do
It irritates me and I know it
I didn't ask you for one

Tangles of Memories
Darkness approaches, 
wrapping me in its cruel embrace 
Blank shadows on the wall, 
feigns their affection for all 

Night sings its worthless song, 
blanketing the night in anguish 
Tangles of memories are closing in,
whispering past my chilled skin 

They echo in the wind at night,

TO COMPLIMENT THE MEAT OF THEIR CHOSING

AND SHALL...

Tangles & Knots

In my hair there are tangles and knots

Premium Member Now That We Are Here
Life is entanglement plus time,
A Gordian knot of opportunities,
Each ravel a riddle to solve
or a battle to be won.

We grab and pull at the gnarls,
Greedy fingers seeking solutions alone.
Though the more we worry them,
the tighter the fibers cling together,
defeating our efforts with every turn.

The working...

Unraveling Faith
I
Tangles
Life in bang - les and jangles
One angle
Unravels the tangles
One bang - le at a time

II
My only angle 
Of untying any tangle
Is to hop on Faith - plane
Even if time made it a debris jungle
Faith rescues me every time...
