Visual Attacks

Personal perception
means so much of everything

it can bring on the boogeyman
or can cause your heart to sing

~

Individual
interpretation can mean anything

you could wind up afraid of the dark
or pack a lunch to bring

~

Private persuasions
can wrap your mind 'round anything

just remember to remove your hat
in the court of the elfin king.

Oh ! You bet, Mom....

...I KNOW, you'd bring a lunch to bring ! However, I have mixed feelings, as to whether or not I'd like to witness the calamity, up close. 1-4-3 ! "Write on"! sincerely, #{:-{)}8==== docmaverick.
