Premium MemberDirty Child's Dime

...I know the blame and the shame,
like a dirty picked up dime
forgetting its once shiny place
and a instrument that paves
I'm now the fresh concrete,
you all walk over,
as teens scribble love...

It was after midnight,
when he slipped out of bed,
careful not to disturb,

of a lost little life ever circling

The Draft by the Door

...The draft by the door can only mean…
That there is someone behind the screen. 
They claimed it was just a gust of wind.

One Condition

I see a problem with religion,

It's like a competition,

You can't just slip in.

They want you to fit in.

Rain

...Love falls like rain,
Onto my waxed face. 
Blending into tears of pain, 
From an unknown place.

Satin Scrunchie

...Modesty is not
Dresses and scarves
But action and thought
Gentle and measured.
I wear a satin scrunchie
On my wrist, it reminds me
I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

Chiming in

Spreading the nation,

Broadcast on every station,

Here is a free phone,

Just for the occasion.

Getting under your skin.

Outlandish nonsense with English attempted
Borderline craziness it can resemble
Baffled, I mutter, “May I be exempted?”

time stops to slip in ebony night,
emotive clock freezes
eternal pathos in congealed instants,

Never been good at hiding

...I have never been good at hiding 
At least not from those who truly pay attention
I’ve never been good at hiding so instead, I became great at deflecting 
I slip in words to distract and detract f...

Premium MemberLeave all your sadness on my doorstep

...Leave all your sadness on my doorstep,
To sit with me, weary as a shadow,
When you stealthily slip in your dear memory in the night,
And let my tears collect, pearls on the damp face of time.

Situations are a mixture. 
A circle of thinkable and unthinkable
opportunities gets you jumping irrelevantly. 
The slipy nature of happiness goes in haste;
