defying odds while insanity sweeps onward

just thoughts... :)

Toying with the edges of my sanity
isn't an easy thing to do

blades glimmer and steel slashes
leaving us only with a killer's ashes
they say hope is near
its not quite far
but it depends whether your on your on walking
or with those to bring you there
in motorized cars
for the ones you love can only see
that they are all fools blinded by love
a cloth over their eyes they refuse to remove
when temper flares and bloods on the wall
then
can you only realize
you were heading for a fall
misjudged and over looked if a hair is out of place
for in a picket fence society everyone has a set space

size zeros and straightened hair 

but

what about all the short girls

with curly hair?

insanity sweeps forward 

 a dusty trail left behind 

a small token for you picket fencers

to show that insanity sweeps forward

Life isn't always as perfect as is seems with the white picket fence.. So I say embrace who you are and run with it :) xx

I was a popular kid because I hung with all groups and still do. To have a smile and a kind hello can open people up and make them feel OK. We are all different. Never know what you are missing not talking to the quiet kids.

Great wisdom is your words. A outstanding poem.

A pure running of thoughts melded into one for us, a well written piece.
