the baker's daughter

Angela
the artsy girl
down the hall
can't tell you much
about her 
but what she knew 
about me
could fill at least
a thousand ears

Angela
kept birthday candles
in a jar
by her door
she'd light one
whenever I'd come around
then she'd spit
on her burnt fingers, cussin'
yeah, well that's enough outta me

Now...
"Tell me what
you are
by what you wish for,
bear claw,
Are you
the icing
or
the cake?"

waiting for the boss

this is the story of a girl who lived in the basement of the girl next door sheltered in the confines of a  suburban tract house dungeon; her punishment for runnin' wild with dreams half unlatched she ran like a spirit in the night from those badlands wind blowin' through her hair shielding her eyes from the blinding light she hugged onto a shoreline of hope someday soon, she's not sure when her savior will rise up from the streets with an armload of rain soaked roses and second chances Rene ~ 2010 Click  Here   to join Magpie Tales creative writing group .
