Let's take a trip down Memory Lane
Full of fun and games to play
Nostalgic scents
And terrible bruises
The extreme mystery continues

Let's take a trip down-
No wait-
I'd rather-
*Not
Go
There!

Seed

The tiniest of seeds
Can turn into the prettiest of trees

007

007,
A mystery it seems,
Bursting through the trees,
A beautiful woman on each arm,
And shaken martini in hand,
Not stirred,
Suave and extra hot showers,
With all the ladies he's pulled at the bar,
Dancing deadly,
With bullets and bombs,
His enemies growing angry,
At his tech and smooth pick up lines,
007,
A mystery no more.
*James Bond,
Reporting for service, ma'am.

Untitled

I was told
To tell the truth
But only if
It doesn't hurt people

A little girl
Sidles up to her Mamma
Mama, why shan't I not lie,
When it makes you so cry?

A Mamma is questioned
By a young un' with a little more sense
Than grown ups could ever wish to achieve

A beautiful woman replies,
To her small child with a smile and sheds a tear
Because her baby girl
Speaks with no fear
Of her already questioning conscience

Oh, baby.
I love you.
But please,
Carry on being you,
Because you have an entire lifetime,
To make boys cry.
Do you understand, baby girl?

*Yes, Mama.
Speak the truth-
Make boys cry a salty tear,
And feel no remorse.

Deadbeat Pity

I have a heart made of daggers
That could slice your deadbeat life in two
But why should I waste my pity
Spending it all on you?

Please Be Careful With The Comments

Please be careful
With your comments

When you comment on people's work!

Their work can be complex
And have meaning that
Only the author understands

This is a sacred place
For most all of the people
That post work here

Simply leaving a
"What's wrong with you" comment

Not the best idea

There is nothing wrong with me
I am one of the most kind and loving people

Who talks to my own gardener
And brings him fruit

There is nothing wrong with me
I am a good human being

If you meant it in a sympathetic way
I appreciate it
We all have bad days
And sometimes we write about
Negative feelings or emotions

Please be extra careful with your comments
We put everything into our writing!

Please be polite and leave an explanation
Of your critique
We must tread softly here

Dart

The rocks don't stop you,
And neither does your prey's sharp teeth.
Gold, silver, grey and blue,
Darting into salty view,
What a lovely shade and hue,
I want to have you for my own,
And yet,
Here you are,
Away from the net,
Dart, dart, darting away,
Wonder of your fluorescent skin,
Smoother than the smallest pin,
A jokers smile is plastered for show,
Swim, swim, swim away.
