The Indifferent
The Indifferent
do not count me among
the indifferent for
i have too much
compassion for mankind
to turn a deaf ear to
the sick, lost or those
subjected to injustice
i am driven by a need
for peace not for
myself alone
but all who inhabit
the world and if
indifference is tantamount
to lifelessness
do not count me
among the living dead

The Justice Parlor
if God had no mercy
if friends gave no
thought to forgiveness
if a mother's love
ceased to be unconditional
who among us would
long to enter
the justice parlor
where everyone
got just what
they deserved

The Sculptured Man
it is the man with the sculptured look
that intrigues me more than any man
he has that air of confidence that
shows he believes in himself
he is the kind of man i find in my fantasies with all of the romantic trappings
the man that is the epitome of perfection
the kind that sparks the passion in me
i can tell you how to touch a man like him and make his thighs tremble
it is with the light touch when he least expects it that catches him off guard
he can not resist the sudden brush of your thigh against him
the way you catch his eye and hold his gaze then quickly look in the opposite direction
yes, that gentle rub against his tight perfect body will excite him
you will get his attention much faster if you smile all the while your bodies
collide

The Sequel To The Day The Clock Stopped
her eyes are fixated on
the hands of the clock
on the wall
unlike her racing thoughts
time seems to have stopped
a feeling of loneliness
runs through her veins
as she wonders if
she has crossed over
the line to insanity
gripping her rosary
she begs for God's mercy
pleads for her salvation
things move in slow motion
as she realizes
her prayer was answered
she lifts herself up
and slips out of bed
ready now to face the world
