A Reptile Lost Among Your Fears We travel the road of least resistance change to please our friends. We talk and walk and live our lives to further someone else's ends. If we could we would change colors alter our bodies shape. If we could we would learn languages Seeing that it's self we rape. We give to others till none is left sharing for just poor me. Don't know how to limit our gifts it's the good guy we we want others to see. If we could only change for true become strong and in control. Then we would be completed a good person with our own soul. I would like to hold you now and dry away your tears. But if I do, I'll cry your cry and be lost among your fears. ~~~~~~~~~~ Another flash from the past-this piece was written in 1992. At the time, I was on a road trip with a motorcyle group and I was getting to know my bithday present...she turned out to be just as "adaptable" as myself- lol. bleeding...

So much wisdom in the truth. It's always cool to find all the stuff we wrote a long time ago, and it's cooler when that stuff is actually good! See, mine is never actually good when I find it. Thanks for digging through your past for us here at the Pub! Alicia A. Renzelman |

Hey Dude!! When did you start hangin' in the Pub? I remember well your first published and it is still as good now as it was then and this one I hadn't seen but enjoyed very much. I saw your reply to my reply in Open 7 and you asked where I was. Well, I spend a lot of time reading and not much writing. To be honest I think my muse died. I was going to borrow Marge's but she says hers is hard to get along with and keeps ya up at night. I sincerely love my sleep so I have to shop around for another one. Glad to see you posting though. Sure miss you!!! Sis Poetry~ Words falling on paper, painting a dream. Shawna R. Holder Boise, Idaho |

I am sincerely touched by y'alls warm welcome to the pub! I was quite bummed when #6 filled up and for some inner reason don't like to change venue...guess i'll stay here as long as y'all put up with me? I have been writing since age 13 and saving since around 1972. lol yes i do have a closet full of this stuff...and the matching file cabinet full of rejection slips! Tis certainly nice to find someplace to publish the stuff, even though some of it must be drug into the light of day kicking and screaming all the way...isn't life amusing? again thank y'all bleeding...
