[hometext] => Sometimes life trumps explanation, and the aftermath is heartache and misunderstanding. Or maybe I just don't know what the hell I'm talking about! The latter explanation is perhaps better suited : )
[bodytext] => A chopped up remnant of a memory
buried hastily in tragedy
Hazy in detail, yet still reliable
assuming the sealed lips are still pliable
Tossed and turned in sodden earth
gory remains of lifes' afterbirth
Flanked with a shield of utter contempt
fistfuls of dirt reveal a dogged attempt
Worms bore through the bony crevice of your mind
reluctantly they starve, when there's nothing to find
Wisps of secrets spill out, into the crisp, autumn air
unsheathed by your lips; they beg, if not dare...

Damn girl! This is serious stuff!
I missed your work hun. This piece is a stunning
example of just why. Brilliant, scorpy.
The metaphors are amazing and the sheer power
of this work drives through me like a lightning bolt.
Perfection~

Wow…I must say…your work drastically improves as you keep writing…this was flawless…it was intense…it was just perfect…everything we all aspire to contain when we write.
My favorite lines…
“Hazy in detail, yet still reliable
assuming the sealed lips are still pliable”
You are a true talent

Nice to have you back and writing, been a long while hasn't it? Certainly haven't lost your talent though. It's interesting, I've always liked how you use so many metaphors, and it's no different here. I've said this before, your writes make people think, you're not handed the story but once you get the outline, and it's core, it's relatable, and it pieces itself together perfectly - if any of that makes sense lol. Very nice scorpz, glad to have you back, hopefully they'll be more writes too.

As, I only just discovered you, I can't join in all the, 'glad to see ya' back', but, I can certainly say, I'm immensely enjoying my first forays in getting to know your work! And, found this particularly lyrical...
" Wisps of secrets spill out, into the crisp, autumn air
unsheathed by your lips; they beg, if not dare..."
