Quick Thought

Short poem

There are no stains on this tattered edge of my mind,
where single strands fray out, leaving the pattern.
And as I cling to this bit of clarity, I'm swinging my legs, 
building up momentum in an attempt to rustle the curtain 
and let some light in.

Very creative and after your other thoughts, what better than a "Quick" thought. Both nicely done. Both had similar flow of creating a thought in the readers mind. Of course I am still recovering and what do I know at this point. LOL

i can't be partial with one i like them all but people seem to like "kill your girl child" a lot..

[mattavelli]

I've read it. I liked it a lot. Men will do whatever they want until woman stop them. Grandmothers are very powerful. They choose the winner here.
