You can't get here from there...

I will not
love you
this time.
Go away.
Stay away.
Come again
no other day.

  6. And if they still refuse to leave...
    ....threaten to do a Kirby Vacuum demo for them.
    Or do like I and politely ask them to wait while I get my gun.......then reach into my pocket.

  7. All my thoughts
    Are of a distant friend.
    Someone I don't know
    Of a person.

    She is as strong
    As her words are vibrant.
    I will hope she always stays
    Near my beating heart.

    In this place where poets reside.

    In this place. Always.

  17. Funny you should mention that, Berry. Was just thinking my muse might appreciate a visit to the ocean some evening this weekend.
    She sure hasn't had much to say lately, even as I've been struggling with a piece for a few weeks. Just haven't got it quite right yet.
