"Poetry can be therapy, so shut the door and get comfortable, we've been through a lot since our last visit. Glad to see you brought coffee. Just a reminder, I know this is expensive, but like life there are no guarantees. I do expect to stir some thoughts you can gain from. So now, where shall we begin to make sense of this mess?" ----------------------------------------------- # 59 - Highest rank in Poetry! UPDATES: When the inspiration strikes me. Put it in your library and watch your notifications. There are many styles of writing and many subjects covered here, you are bound to find something you like, so please keep reading, and thank you for it. Although you may not call all of it poetry, none take overly long to read. We've had some fun, interesting talks in the comments too, feel free to join in! Time has afforded me opportunities to reexamine many opinions and events with the clarity of hindsight and cool head of distance, but emotional memory is like a wine, good and bad clarify with time. My poetry will cover many themes that we all can relate to, like pain, grief, adolescence, humor, and philosophy, as well as specific events, such as parenting and divorce from child and adult perspectives. Warning: I try to keep it PG 13, but there may be some fleeting references to sex, desire, addictions, suicide prevention, adult situations, etc. Some characters have fowl language, but most poems are free of it. I will try to warn You of anything that is approaching the limits of PG 13. No smutt here. All Rights Reserved Property Of @Cantputitdown ... I Care, I Can Prove It's Mine, So Don't.

EDITING AND SPELLING SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOME. I have no intention of offending anyone, but I voice my opinion. Please take it as only that.

*COMPLETE!* He was born into a world that taught him the rage of war, subjugation and suffering. Driven by misery and grief, he embraced the Flames of Bedlam and became the First Dragon. The world hailed him as Bahamut, the Dragon King. They trembled under the vengeance of the monster they created... ...But as water calms the flame, another Dragon appears, determined to turn this bestial tyrant into a true king.

For months Summer is trapped in a cellar with the man who took her - and three other girls: Rose, Poppy, and Violet. His perfect, pure flowers. His family. But flowers can't survive long cut off from the sun, and time is running out...
