Poisoned Web  The lies tangled in despite Pull the poisoned web so tight Unwary is the heart that fell Into this tortured fevered hell Trust reflected lures you in Captures a soul in wordy spin Denies the touch of silken lie Strangled hopes makes you cry No way you have of release The pain of lies will never cease Don’t believe in hopes of free Expecting nought but misery Inside you're facing your defeat The shameful lies you repeat You are trapped by your desire Writhing in this searing fire Pause awhile and contemplate This might be your destined fate Beware this web it can harm Deadly pain wrapped in charm Marsha To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 [This message has been edited by Marsha (04-24-2002 08:45 AM).] |

Inside you face your defeat The shameful lies you repeat Can't say I know the intent of this, but the above lines reflected to me a self-destructive cycle--and that is something of which I am quite familiar. Sigh. However far off the mark I may be, I could relate to this, and did enjoy. Thanks! |

Darling poets, just in case you think this is about me, it isn’t, I have never been happier than I am right now. It was actually written because of a discussion I had with Krissy. She works with someone who is trapped in a very destructive relationship. And so this was born, but it truly isn’t about me or mine.   Love and warm stuff As always Mushy  To give light to them that sit in darkness..... to guide our feet into the way of peace Luke 2:79 |

 (big hugggsssssss) Oh Marsha, this is so very sad, my heart goes out to Krissy's friend and everyone else who gets caught in this kind of deceitful web! (sad sigh) This is so very sad but powerful, sweet friend, my thoughts are with her friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Marsha, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton |

MarshaLove~ This is a well-woven piece, looped with your lovely rhyme~ I think we all know one or two who weave their webs and end up caught in them~ Nicely done, poetess~ *Hugs* ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Mushy, I never thought that. Was a little worried about the wench...but I never thought that!  It's never too late to have a good childhood! Woohoo! |

It's very easy to be caught up or entangled, especially if at a vulnerable time in life.. You did the title justice Marsha hugss M and I agree, you have a great sense of rhyming. |

Marsha, darling girl, I am truly amazed at your talent and skill for taking a little crumb fallen from a bite of someone's bread and adding a bit of Mushy honey to it, and then warming it softly in your glowing oven to make our finest living bread. How well you bake! And I am just a little bitty hungry salivating mouth desiring your succulent delights. Let me taste you over and over again. Keep them coming, darling girl.
