thick and tough hide
I started writing verse with a thin skin learned quick after a few months in the den I really don't know what I first expected because my verse was surely rejected I had to work fast to get my feelings protected so the armadillo I detected Most of us poets want to be a thriller I'm satisfied being like an armadillo Thick hardened skin versing in this den So where do I go from fear I patch azz and keep my behind here Try to pierce the armadillo the heck with being a thriller My verse becomes a killer OnepoetGem

Roses are red, thorns prick instead, depending on the head, or what is later on said.

Thorns End

The world is full of angry pissed off people everywhere, here and there, and some really don''t care. They have anger to spare.

Pissed Off People

Life is a sweet and sour affair, so take a deep breath and find some fresh air, that is if you dare or really care.

Deliver Us From Evil

We need oxygen, aka air, no matter what it needs to be there, however life at times isn't fair.

"Be happy for what you escape!" A Trask quote got me to thinking, and inking.
