it would be of us remiss,
to dilute bliss beats that rise,
for no one’s born, no one dies.

Fearsome face of sickly white
Lion-headed snake
Embellished in his shadows  
With flaming orange beneath

The mouth goes really dry,
The chest feels stimulated,
The nipples get hard,
The mind becomes light-headed,
Then the arms and legs go numb.

Premium Member I Know My Soul Wisely

I know my soul wisely
in the most wonderful of ways
with absolute love and conviction 
that I am headed in the keening
direction of my heart.

Don't know where my life is headed
I hate being so confused
I just hope my future is brighter
than my past has been

No more blight.
No more loneliness,
No more fright.
No more hiding,
No more shame.
No more embarrassment;

Thick headed? Who? Me?
Well, maybe, check my ears,
and you will see,
Grade A concrete,
Thick and fast,
Not too sure,
How long my neck will last.

Demure and graceful she sat ~ a wallflower.

whose hairstyle's a wonky Afro

Who repaired his head dent
