Chopped Liver
12/30/20 Their stuff they are flashing Towards others they are bashing They get a kick out of it, and continue laughing They think they are all that Against me, you'll fall flat And never get a call back Just another small cat Who always tries to talk crap When you see me, panic and walk fast Come get it, if you want the ball back Or...

Some pay the price as they get zapped, others seemingly to live charmed life. As I sit waiting enjoying the night sounds, a large moth appears by...

Chamber Music Chopped Sailing to heaven, the violin and viola never noticed the cello sleeping dangling in the sky until it was too late. their anchor was gone and the trio became a broken record. ©Kathryn McLoughlin Collins January 8, 2013...
