Autoplay

The ones we love are crueler,
But the ones want us, are bores;
They're boring, that it's us they want-
Cause it's us, that we abhor.

The ones excite, are dangerous,
Unavailable, or sly-
That's reason quite enough for us
To sell our piece of sky.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

Jim Troy 12 September 2011

I would hate to imagine that a loved one would be so mean as to be cruel to you lady Patti. You seem to have such a beautiful heart and write so lovingly and with such depth and feelings. If it were that I could pick up my lance and slay a cruel dragon for you I would be most honored. For you are one that never needs to feel the wounds of cruelty in such a heart you display in your poems. Hope your poem is not heart felt. Jim Troy
