Bad stretched as far as I could toward the sky giggling like a schoolgirl as I fell with a thud from grace in the immoral clutches of my Sunday School teacher having bitten into the flesh of life savored the saccharine for sweetness had been laced with dread walked down scary roads entered into heretofore unknown worlds lustful and bloody tasting bright lights quenching my thirst at the Last Chance Lounge and Fleshpit social order run amok took my shoes off rolled up my pants legs and wallowed into the deep-end of the sewer I attacked the world, both fist clenched gritting my teeth giving no quarter, asking for none saw things which trouble me still not such a nice place out there but then I wasn't looking for nice old now never ever thought this far ahead when I thought at all thought I'd be room temperature long before now just goes to show you even bad has a chance ©November 30, 2017 / Jerry Pat Bolton ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Yep, you are so right, Lori. That is an old saying which has proven to be truthful. I appreciate your read and take on my thoughts. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |

Probably didn't have many people following you Jerry, though some do wallow in hard times. Others avoid it at all costs. ...just bein' Bluesy |

Yep you know whereof you speak, Blusey. "Others avoid it at all costs." I suppose I was cut from a different cloth, I ran toward trouble at breakneck speed, not the wises choice I will admit. ~ If they give you ruled paper, write sideways. ~ |
