Laying on the trampoline, the sky is closing another day
despite the chill we are reading outside, the school books closed
flipping the pages of a glossy magazine perfumed pages waft around
living in a never-ending land of time
sun has gone down
the fireflies never dance anymore
she fiddles with her three charmed bracelet
a scotch bottle, a dancing bear, a lady's shoe
street lights come on quarter after five
headlights flood Angelica's brain
flooded dry she takes a chip from our bag
laying on her back and sighs "Did you see that star"?
the house beside ours
up far from us, a lady looks down in a pink night robe and shuts her curtains
the stars wink at us
the night tastes sour as a jawbreaker
sweet in the center
If I had one word to describe you I would say perfect, undeniably, unchanging perfection.
Your skin is like caramel, Your dreads are like licorice.
You eyes are gumballs, And your smell is so wonderful it fills the air with a warm chocolate aroma. You teeth are as white as marshmallows, your tongue so sweet When you use the beautiful mouth to speak, Its as sweet and delicious as honey. Your heart is cased in hard candy like a jawbreaker, But I will take my sweet, and glorious time licking, tasting, enjoying every layer of you into until I hit that soft sweet spot of your as you drown in pleasure. From my hungry, quenching, thriving tongue. You'll want more, and more of me. Your sweetness is my addiction, my hunger is you desire so lets satisfy both our wants enjoying each other and our self proclaim bliss. Some one made you me my sweet, sexy, appetizing Island dream. And I am your duchess of sweets sensual, and loving queen. You are my addiction, and such it is my price because you alone can spoil and rot me to my core. As I finish devouring and conquering yours.
I'm still looking at the future, and it's still great. The future is still filled with a
vast of flying vehicles, high-tech robots, humans and aliens getting along, and a lot of
cities being filled with advanced technology. When I think about what the future would
look like in 3,000 years, it's like I'm aging or whatever. But come to think of it, the
future will still be awesome. Just like those science fiction movies I might've seen, the
future will look a bit scary, but thrilling. I bet that the metropolitan areas will have
large TV screens, traveling tubes, the works. If the Earth was a larger as a massive
jawbreaker, then this planet would have more cities, more futuristic vehicles, more of
everything. This is starting to look like an episode of "The Jetsons." I guess I'm ready
for the future to come around. And if the future starts to have impact on the entire human
race, then there's no telling what might happen next. I wonder if there's going to be
world peace for life?
Soda pop and gum drops
A river full, so sweet
To be that child I once was
All that candy, I would eat
Not worry about a cavity,
the dentist or my skin
Just concerned with getting more
And filling it within
A jawbreaker, some nonpareils
Bazookas and candy dots
Sour apples and baby ruths
Oh I love it all a lot
