twisting words
spinning toes
clinging to our insinuating woes
swirling forces of water all band
hands clung to hands
Feet in the sand
biased opinions
crinkling glass
wonders of solidity
veils that will pass
a stinging of falseness
drippings of envy
blades of pure venom
rules made for bending
a solid investment in long shots and tope
nothing is perfect
one can only hope
