the sunset red like a bloody fighter the nudity of words in a love letter I think of sun-kissed lips in the shadows and raindrops jealous of the umbrella I hear gleeful laughter of my troubled youth David Allen Coe pushing dirt around words like, you can’t shake hands with a fist before she spread her cultured legs she opened doors I could not found out they were only open for the day it wasn’t enough ©April 18, 2014 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~*~ The poor wish to be rich, the rich wish to be happy, the single wish to be married, and the married wish to be dead. ~*~ |

This is a fresh twist on your usual style. Kinda nice to mix things up every once in a while, huh?! I enjoyed this. Lori  |

Thanks, Lori. Yep, even I was getting bored with my white bread approach in my poetry. This isn't such a jump away from it, but it's a start. ~*~ The poor wish to be rich, the rich wish to be happy, the single wish to be married, and the married wish to be dead. ~*~ |
