Premium Member Soul of a child
My twin was delusional, he thought he was a star He told me people recognized him, near and far Strangers gave him thumbs up, pretty women smiled Within him they saw the soul of a child. I said "Jerry, no offense, you are poor at conversation People yawn, go away, for the dialog duration You lack warmth, enthusiasm, any vital spark You're...

Does he like black girls?
Does he like black girls Or does he like the idea of the swirl Does he like black girls Or does he only like type two and three curls Does he like black girls Or does he want bragging rights Does he like black girls Or does he just want a turn Does he like black girls Or does he want...

worth plays a part
I'm not worth a lot But you are Your more then the moon and stars You hold the key to my deeply broken heart Your more then everything and I tear myself apart You love me but I'm dead Mentally I'm gone But you don't care Youd love me till the sun runs out Till the end I'm not worth a lot But...

Premium Member Worth Every Penny
The space right beside me is empty And my wish is for you to be there Desire for you I've aplenty, Plus there's plenty of room in my chair We could talk about things and do puzzles Our legs entwined reading a book In a blinding snowstorm we can cuddle I'll feel my way, no need to look...

more trouble than it’s worth
I tried the blade, but it was too cold to follow through. I considered water, but I wish to leave looking like me. Rope seemed too staged—too dramatic. Gravity breaks every waking bone. Pills just make you ache and vomit. In the end, it’s easier to endure than escape....

God Gave Me You
We both jumped off a cliff, I fell You flew We both went for a dip, You swam I sank to darker hues Each night my dreams play On replay These similar troublesome tales Yet the day brings the light Which reflects the words I only dare believe From your eyes And the rhythm of your heart Beats several strides slower Just so...

Premium Member THE WORTH OF WORDS
I drifted as a cloud That floats above the hills And then I saw a crowd Of brilliant bluebells There blowing in the breeze Now comes burst of sunshine A sight for all to please And I am feeling fine Then soon the sun sinks low And takes the light away End of the daylight show But now comes Milky Way. ...

The Bruise Was Worth It
I kissed the fall. Ran barefoot through glass and silence. Told him I loved him— even when it undid me. It was raw. It was ruin. But it stayed, like a scar worth naming...

Extras
Only when my costume’s Been hissed at with steel Do my garments ripple in small, stormless waves. Only when my mask Has been greased in pale mud Do my blemishes blend with the sea of my face. Only when my hair’s Met a shower of glue Does it cow to the waves that my fingers might make. Only when my prop Has been sharpened in...

FOR ALL THAT IT'S WORTH
FOR ALL THAT IT’S WORTH – BY HAMID SINCLAIR In God… we find the godless. So-called transformers of faith— Neo-Decepticons, New Age ravers, Ravenous sheep… in wolf’s clothing. Hapless victims—bitten by the serpent. They entered humanity’s paradise… and robbed him. No—her. Wait… is it her/him? Everyone catching the vapors of...

It is no longer about right or wrong. it is about taking a stand Against those who came to this country  to escape poverty and tyranny, and now want to end democracy  The unwritten consensus among people of different classes.  We have become soft liberal,  Christianity, you said?  Don’t make me laugh; we are far too Self-assured  to believe...

Worth fighting for
Worth Fighting For I was just thinking the other day. Alone just wondering in a haze. Is someone worth fighting for? Standing in the rain under a downpour. We’ve had time apart. Someone may have a broken heart. Where does all the time go? I’m getting older, you know. I can’t wait forever. Another sunset...
