pre schooling pretty connotations of ground rules

hodge podge fondues of wonderous sorcerors

a eucalyptus on calypsos island

a hostage taken into custody

a hero, known for his pride

grown ups growing up

southern city of boston

where the snow piles up into ashes

leaving behind residue of coconut cream

they say its good for your skin

a sunrise depicting your detached sense of political correctness

a forgetful husband remembering your anniversary

the second one

maybe five more times

spin around and look in the mirror

a shattered glass half empty

half broken

picking up pieces of regret

a break in between work and justice

a space between him and her

between me and

judicial involvement with the catastrophic nature of misogynistic gypsies

brewing coffee on Olympus

a myth from reality

a sad tale of a dying criminal

a daily job consisting of

pushing a button

pushing her button

a button up dress with a blouse on top

layering attitudes of southern prosperous gratitude

a solitude of fine art

too fine for judgment

housing guests: a hospitality unwelcomed

comes at a price of a dollar and a kidney

scooping up the shallow water in which they see

disappointment
