PenniesPennies

I am a thief.

I am eight years old, and already, I am crooked.
"How many?" the cashier asks me, referring to the amount of penny candy I have scooped into the bag. (All I can remember about her is that she had red hair, and was generally unconcerned with me. In all my short-ness, there was not much of me to be noticed). Still, I feel taller, standing beside Lucy and lying to the cashier straight to her face. I announce that I have
"Sixty-two!" pieces of Swedish Fish in the bag.
She nods, types the code in. I hold my breath, straighten my spine. Consider snatching the bag and runn

Looters and RiotersThe fire licks the London brick

and the boy in the hood dances

he's seventeen and finally feels

like a man.

He put the rag in the bottle

in the window in the shop

and watched it go up -

felt real.

And the chorus comes out

spitting thick pleghm

through bared white teeth

and shrieking justice.

They stand on their hind legs

desperate for a chance

to tear out red-black words

and hurl them away,

away from their pockets,

the tell-tale phallic bulge

of stolen money

taken legally,

from boy-men in hoods.

Carpe diemNothing lasts forever
So live it up
Avoid the bullshit
Take chances
And never have regrets
Because at one point
Everything you did
Was exactly what you wanted
Someday everything will make perfect sense
So for now smile through tears
And keep reminding yourself that everything happens for a reason
Happiness comes and goes
We don't know when or how
But when it is there catch it with both hands
Forget about the past
Enjoy while it lasts
Because once it is gone
Who knows when will it return
Life is hard but don't despair
Someone somewhere does care
Reality is not nice as you would like it to be
Is it better to live on dreams

No Country for Old CrittersBein' an owl, I reckon I see most things that other woodland folk are just too blind to see. Can't see the forest for the trees, an' all that. Mostly simple stuff, nothin' worth writin' a book about. But I seen a couple things, mind, as could make a creature ponder its rightful place in the world. I seen a rabbit once't, possessed by the devil (or an adrenal excess) who done broke the nose offen the fox what was chasin' 'im. True, it's an unusual twist to see sich a thing happen, but that weren't nothin' compared to how that same rabbit feller got his nose broke by a female what he done decided to make friendly with. Glories of nature, spring

AntigoneSo Antigone covered her dead brother with a sprinkling of dust?
Barely concealed from the scorching sun,
skin slimy and oozing. She’s in it for the symbol--
a riddle and an enigma,
patterns I cannot understand.
The puzzle that is me is the puzzle that
follows, the pattern that trails, for these patterns are--
redundant, as patterns are, and patterns should be.
A glint of his eyes, his scorching sun,
forms a word that pulls a string
within my patterned spirit--
Am I a violin, for glimmers and shadows of
meaning to play upon?
Woman as violin,
violin as meaning,
meaning as extension of the self,
built up like a Stradivariu

PLEASE SUPPORT THIS DEVIATION. IF YOU LIKE IT, FAV IT. LET EVERYONE SEE IT.

"For god giveth us children, to love and to hold. The innocence in their lives, is a story long told. Those who do evil on our childrens soul, you are a sorry morbid soul" - me

Original Photo taken by me. Manipulated in Photoshop. Not sure if i've submitted it into the right category. (Emotive Portraits)

Appreciate your help, comments, suggestions & favs. Thanks in advance.

~undead-delerium Jan 26, 2006

In theory I support you, but I don't like the way you've worded it. Yes, abuse and pedolphilia should not be tolerated, but why bring religion into something that is clearly moral?? For most of us, these things are not always combined. Oh well, that's what you believe.

I'm behind you in principle, but no fav. Sorry.

~sacredblood Jan 26, 2006

Tks for the comment. What would you think would make a better title?

~undead-delerium Jan 26, 2006

I really have no idea. Today, the poetic escapes me.

~Xbeautiful-tragedyX Jan 25, 2006

That is so strong. I love it. However, reckon you should of used a different font for the bottom text. Something a bit mroe sharper, a bit more harder.

~sacredblood Jan 25, 2006
