One by one, tumbling fun. Spiraling around, falling down. Fun to watch, hard to batch. You say our love won't decay. so I hide my dominos away. I know how fast they fall, so I will not play at all. You insist to play, so I give them to you anyway. Before you set them up, I leave the room abrupt. You call out for me to return, I refuse your invitational concern. Why should I fear dominos? They're only dominos. But the last time I played them, my love fell with them. If the same thing happens to us, my dominos will get the thrust, this you can trust. No more dominos, just the way it goes. G

One by one,
tumbling fun.
Spiraling around,
falling down.
Fun to watch,
hard to batch.

You say our love won't decay.
so I hide my dominos away.
I know how fast they fall,
so I will not play at all.

You insist to play,
so I give them to you anyway.
Before you set them up,
I leave the room abrupt.
You call out for me to return,"

Excellent Grady!!!!

BRILLIANT Grady!
"Why should I fear dominos?
They're only dominos.
But the last time I played them,
my love fell with them.
If the same thing happens to us,
my dominos will get the thrust,

New Poetry by OnepoetGem *the Poetic Rapper

I once heard this preacher say, "I''ll preach out of a paper bag if I have to." I feel the same about verse.

Paper Bag Poet

From the wishing well, minusing the devil''s hell.

I Wish U Well

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.

Lung Answer

and likes, whatever! Oh yes, the racist and bigots are here too, just like in regular society.

Peoples Dislikes

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