Skinning my knees
on playground
concrete rules
break my bones
whistle blown
conforming to your norms
lines formed
counting the heads
of each time you blame me
for your cheats
shrugging at punishment
passing the ball
to me?
chosen
when i'd rather be
left out.....
sorry about all this venting. xxxxxx

learning each day, for you and i, our paths have met, i've already learnt that you are love.

Gemma, your vents are good...
and good for you.
This one, in particular,
takes a lot of twists and turns...
sort of like one feels,
when they've been rapped upon
for the last time...

thank you!
