If It Grins, Bear It


Like a candle 
Lit gap 

Toothed, marrow-hollowed 
Pumpkin weaned of the mother 
Patch plotting dastardly deeds

Against its seed, 
Keep smiling.

  3. Thanks, dudes; I find the more lines I break, the number my knuckles get, so I guess my number's coming to the end of its line! :)

  5. The omnipresent, omniscient Goobloggle thus spake and his bytes bared their teeth and lo! the naked truth was revealed throughout the blogosphere— "Forsooth, Jimmy was 5' 5" inches tall in his birthday suit, the 'Squint-eyed Kid’ 5'4" in long johns!”
