Her sarcasm fell and slapped against me like a cold lump of lard and I remembered that her thumbs were to short, like toes and her hair was not naturally red she just set out bear traps not really much to say about that just see ya later I don't need this |

She just set out bear traps....that is one great line.. I've met that gal and those bear traps look so innocent 'til you stick your foot in. Great poem, sir. |

I've seen those traps too, they really hurt. see ya later I don't need this ... how I wish I could have said that. Nicely done. The tragedy of it is that nobody sees the look of desperation on my face. Thousands and thousands of us, and we're passing one another without a look of recognition. |

Balladeer- I'm suprised that ya liked it, at least it had one good line Enola-sometimes you just have to kick them to the curd (and is your name derived from the a bomb dropper) Hootie rn-I just don't understand, I did not have any idea what I was writing until it was done Denise- thanks and that's damn straight Nan- well not all of us get to the beauty parlor every day Amy- thanks, and here I thought it was just silly |
