if you are curious. I can also write a poem about most anything, so if you have a topic you want written about, just ask. :) (I hate the 250 characters thing!) <br /> <br /> I&#039;ve been jumping from the tops of buildings...

Red, round, perfect as it
sits, still on the counter.
Reach out; dare to take it.
Go! Go! Take it! Faster!

Sits, still on the counter;
you are too afraid to
go, go take it. Faster
than you would wish to do.

You are too afraid to
bite into juicy flesh.
Then you would wish to do
things you cannot repress.

Bite into juicy flesh,
reach out, dare to slay those
fears you cannot repress.
Red, round, perfect… is it?
