So I hold on to stay ...

Poison Pen - a Lie For a Lie, and a Truth For a Truth

...The pen is tidier than the cord.	
A garrote provokes an unsettling gurgle
That reverberates in the midnight hour
When one is trying to pursue a guiltless sleep.

Obstructing my thoughts, its view uncouth;
Wet-plaster egg-sacs lined in rows,
Frothy-white gluey strands stand aloft.

A whistling through teeth, acerbic g...

Un-education is a curse- it’s known to all-wise
Wisdom sometimes unable to show the right path

That demonic smartphone, I propose.
That mutant who seduces you,
With most amorous rings!
Put the sultry siren to rest,

As she gently peeled the heirloom

Skinned strips into the garbage

And aloud, tastes and scen...

octopus with suction cup hands.
