Be careful of ultimatums;
you might not like
her choice!
Wisdom of wine Wednesday
Elle H Apr 2018
He said, as “words or wisdom” ...
     Don’t dream ... don’t wish...
I say
     Dare to dream and make wishes
     Exercise your imagination
     No one knows the future for it has yet to unfold


He said...
     Never ask anyone to save you
I say...
     Who needs saving? You or me?
     I am a survivor on my own merit.


He said...
     I can not pander toward other people’s loneliness.
I say...
     It wasn’t loneliness you were pandering toward.
    You are a hunter.
     I was bored.


He said...
     It (you) takes away from my other relationships (yes, plural)
And the tells me...
     Love exclusively or don’t love at all.
I say...
     What’s good for the goose is not good for the gander, huh?
     You do not practice what you preach
     therefore, there is no wisdom in your speech.


Just MY thoughts

He sheds his serpent skin
Only to regenerate a thicker version
Of emotionally unavailable armor,
While drinking his bourbon.
Elle H Mar 2018
you were just a ripple in time
not one I’m likely to forget
but one I must let go  
lest infection spread!
Elle H Mar 2018
He drank the wine
From the vine
Deep rooted
Beyond his border
Where the sun shined
warmth by design
Which bloomed sweet fruit
He stole from another
Elle H Mar 2018
Hunter of women burns to show their skill,
Yet when the panting prize has been caught
Mere force of habit drives them to the ****:
The soft flesh is less savory than their sport.
Elle H Mar 2018
but you never did
not really,
not even ******’ close.
