Empty   Settling dust---only a guise Paint me a dream with no alibi(s) Peer through the keyhole Pencil a line Property vacant---'For Sale' reads the sign Sprayed on graffiti Rats organize trash Time cannot borrow what's gone in a flash. ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ By Sharon Miller Bolander   © 2008 Peggy Paris (All rights reserved)
