Mad Kane's Limerick ~ Offs

A Gated Limerick

a gal with a very full plate

decided to leave love to fate

she had a ten year plan

and a sexy pool-man

at her house on the hill upstate

It was his sister, Jenny, 

that was an ass.

3 Word Wednesday-  downhill/ freak/ sliver

The Faintest Flicker

sitting across from you 

I struggle to control the beast

inside of me..

I want to scream and yell

that this is not all that there is..

I want to lecture about freaks

and downhill spirals and blessings

that take ballet and learn to play the organ..

but for the life of me I can not choke

the joy that I see in your eyes..

and for just one second .. I too 

caress a sliver of hope...
