little kids playing
by the highway at night,
broken glass looks pretty
when the light hits it right.

tires squeal...
their story ends as broken
but not as pretty.



i'll always need a friend, one i can defend.

GEEZ!
I didn't see that coming!
(I guess neither did those little kids)

This was dark, Eve. Ouch.

Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere

It's the same as people, when you are shallow. Look pretty, but not so pretty nature. Check twice before you cross the road, left, right. And ladeda. Weird mood, neutral. Like Purity says, Ouch! can't think fo anything to say to describe the beauty and scary factor of this poem, so I'll be boring and monotonous: Graet Poem Eve! Sure is good!

Man, there are so many four letter
explicatives I could add "ing" to
to use use as adjectives
to describe how (insert one here) great
this was.

I think the shock value comes in how
short this was
But yet how matter of fact the point.
Sharp as shards or broken glass, Eve!
