Sell me something
Sex
Power
Youth

It’s easy to walk
Oblivious
At least for some
To the guy
Covered
In indoor outdoor
Bags of discard
Huddled

Sell me!
Your voice
is louder than mine
hawking naked breast
or a moment
of Monet
telling me I am appealing
not
middle age ugly

go ahead


sell me

but remember
I don’t buy
Trash

Cpat,
extraordinary observation of life - and pride.
Kethry

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

I found this to be very interesting.....a different point of view....


I sing to life
To it's tragic beauty
To pain and strife
Let all that dances through me
The rise and the fall, I lived through it all

Say Hello to Faulkner's ghost,
and bring back
one truffle
for me.
