Two Story Tent

Living in me is
like living in
a two story tent.

Why climb up there?
If I do, I’ll still be
down here, but with
a layer of cloth
in the way.

I love this! *S* The image of a two story tent is a striking one... (I just have to curb my dirty lil mind when I get to that layer of cloth in the way line. *G* It does lead to a different interpretation! LOL)

Partitions never do help with living in our own skin, do they? *S* Excellent work!

Would you mind sending me the recipe to that O.J you had Ed?

I want me some of this magic.

Enjoyed muchly and yes that cloth certainly plays naughty with the mind
