Tall steel doors close together
tied together with a knot of green and pink christmas ribbon
two tall junipers on either side
gravel road and a steel bucket by the door, of presents
rubber boots and horses neigh
stay, staaaaay!
oats and hay, alfalfa fragrance
hands dirty from the brush
wipe them on the grass, dog barking around
circling, and happy tail,
on one dusty trail packed tight with rain
once again, a flake
escaped
and the dog grabs it with his mouth to drag
it down, but spits it out with distaste
dashing forth like a horse out of stall with a shot
turnabout, racing back, lagging tongue
how good it feels to run
the horses neigh
stay, staaaaaay
deciding then to away themselves,
prancing to the gate
"dessert?"

I had to delete this one bc it made no sense n i hated it. and i don't like the one above either, it's boring, but i'm not inspired at all. too much research on seizures.

What a wicked wicked pen
that girl that thing what a thing to say
said it out loud and about me
off with her head they said and
brought in the ultra cool magnetic pool
we'll show her! zap! let's see if we
can cure her wicked wicked tongue
that speaks such cruel mean truths
sooth, we'll get her!
zap! and her baby brainiac too!
we know he'll be suing everyone left and
right like HER
the wicked wicked woman of the west
your best ideas came from her breast
and the crying shame is that
you could have asked me to teach you
how to write back.
you fight back with little nerdy fists and
big man brawn and streetwise sophisticates
giving me food for thought
walking alone
thinking about the nerdy big man crowd
crossing streets in groups
afraid to see a movie at the theater alone
or carry one independent thought
instead of cash.
