Virginia Salter Were those lies or my paranoia? Should I pry or would it just annoy ya? Day has dawned yet dark still lingers here. Words you spawned grow languid in the beer. Beads of perspiration have dried in salty pools. Your recreation is making me a fool. Why do I linger in the dust your spinning brings? Should I not go and sever all these strings? If I turn away and walk into the night What will you say will you try to fight For any part of me or what I’ve been to you? Is the heart of me your reason to be cruel? I must just go and leave you to the sharks. You’ve made it plain our love has lost its spark. © February 3, 2001 |

Oh my goodness. I hope this is not something that has happened to you, Virginia. Let me know if there is a problem going on here to be dealt with. |

Cool write, Virginia! Love your atmosphere - just a touch of lighthearted scoffing along with the seriousness of the topic... Lary |
