Men like himi get shown time and time again by broken men
red flags and warning signs
i think they will change
but in reality the only person changing is me
the sweet loving girl i once was
is being turned into someone cold and harsh
a girl who once had brown glistening eyes
and shiny brown hair
now her eyes are black and blank
her...

We Bleed RedWe Bleed Red
If I were a king or queen you would notice me, and respect me no matter my race. If I had riches you would befriend and talk behind my back not to my face. You see me as a different color and not as a person with faith, with thoughts and feelings....

FireworksBOOM.
a puff of purple powder stains the pewter sky.
i sit, listening
to the whirring and fizzling
of the firey starlit, glistening
when the midnight clock strikes nigh.
a red light joins in the heavens high,
shimmering
and with a crisp, cool whistling
a tune as musical, magical as fiddling
that steals away breaths by and by.
when all is said and done,
and the burns...

Red And BlackThere are two ants that accidentally fell on the ground due to strong winds. These ants live in two different trees standing very close to each other.
The red ant saw its treehouse collapsed and fell on the ground. The black ant saw it too and quivered, thinking that it's...

Jofra vs Burmrah the crown jewel duelIs there any other sort of sport.. that can hold a candle to having to handle
Getting caught in the ripsnort onslaught scandal…as speedsters hold court
Fraught as they face a serious deleterious imperious express pace ace
At their sleek peak..unique freaks..bombastic..iconoclastic mercenaries
Havoc to wreak on adversaries.. and their own physique..
So as we’ve read..will the King of swing..zing...

Red StagShe holds a bright flame
to see through the dark
for she's fearful of far
incoming storm clouds
Red Stag on the hill
watching closely in height
majestic proud stance
she's not fearful at sight
her long skirt touches leaves
as she crosses the *sruth
and her flames light her face
as her hair flowing loose
and she picks up her steps
as she hears foxes cry
and she...

Murder in the Red BarnA couple soon to be said newly wed,
yet swiftly snuck behind the family’s back
to swear the vow inside th’old shack,
quick forgot’n, buried a secret dread;
A reek awaftin’ out a country shed
left long and fast behind by Spring-heeled Jack,
the stench o’ rot stinkin’ from a sack
discovers a soiled corpse ‘n’a mangled head;
Well…, they ‘was a...

Blood and waterI used to think blood meant forever,
That family would never hurt you.
“Blood’s thicker than water,” right?
But I take the water—
Wash away the blood,
Remove the red-soaked stains from my life.
Blood thicker than water?
Maybe in another life.
Family—
A word that holds little meaning,
A word they never earned.
They should have been my safe space,
Yet now there’s just an empty...

Red Banner, No Quarter
Early on a cold March morning
a handful of men took a stand
in the year of eighteen thirty six
when a sabre drew a line in the sand
it was victory or death for the valiant few
outnumbered and out-gunned
surrender and be spared an ultimatum they knew
with a cannon shot by Travis it was shunned
even as the day was...

Morning at Lake Red Hawchoppy and cold river, white foam is gathering as if it has been in a blender
there is no sound this morning, no bird speak, no crickets, it is silent
I dipped my hand into the water, it was freezing like a frozen halibut.
A peanut butter cup made its way to my mouth, I tasted salt and...
