If thought is SIN, make room for me next to the fire

Not exactly the way you wanted me to think of you.

I thought you should know
I think of you
often ...



Bus Stop.
My hand slipped on the wheel officer, I swear.

I watched an episode of true crime.
The wolf's bane looks great
next to the Shasta Daisies in the garden.

Gas or Brake?
You always said I was a stupid c**t.

6205
the number of days I let you lie to me.

Researching a book
can cover a multitude of indiscretions.

Author's Note

it comes back around.

again, thanks for the revisit. I had so much going on I just couldn't cope with some of the negative people who frequent the Cafe'. I am rejuvenated, and am happy to converse with friends again.

A lot of new people and a lot of people changed names. People seek more. The Cafe is a good place to begin and some of us(Me) will hang around forever. I was glad to see your name on the board.

Too kind. Thanks for your visit.

The vitriol in these simply drips from the page! Each one a little shard of sharp glass to dig into his heart.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks. Originally, all these and the "orange" poem were connected. I opted to dissect them and put them with music.

[Neville]

Clever stuff this, interspersed with a touch of literary genius here & there.. Many truths in so few lines. Another one to envy, damn...

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes. Most of the bitter is gone, but sometimes new things come to light and open old wounds.

You know what I am talking about ma'am!

[Lyn Anderson]

Yes, I am going to edit and do some rearranging.

[Lyn Anderson]

There, I fixed it. Broke the larger poem off and left the Orange is the New Black piece with it.
