Damn near
Due south
and then some
finally making sense
again
no profound
sounding words
or cool calculations
to dilude
these feelings
these feelings
that damn near wilted
with the wall flowers
These
not yet dancing
but
toe tapped feelings
that bully a smirk
into a smile
Can't quite pull the wool
enough for unicorn bliss
but
the wallowing in shit
is starting to stink
and then some
finally making sense
again
no profound
sounding words
or cool calculations
to dilude
these feelings
these feelings
that damn near wilted
with the wall flowers
These
not yet dancing
but
toe tapped feelings
that bully a smirk
into a smile
Can't quite pull the wool
enough for unicorn bliss
but
the wallowing in shit
is starting to stink

"These

toe tapped feelings

into a smile" - that is so freaking adorable. (meaning, i really liked that image. a lot. :)
i think you could have ended on a little stronger (or maybe lighter?) last line, but totally enjoyed either way. [:

Thanks jesta..really struggled with the adorability of this piece as a whole..too damn cute I thought,but forced myself to leave it..opening up comfort zone an such...ill consider the unlightness of last line,prob was a defense from too cute

i totally disagree on 'too cute'. i am a fan of this ditty, and believe me, i know 'too cute'... this isn't it. [:

I disagree with Jess, I LOVED the last stanza. I love "The wallowing in shit/is starting to stink". That was great! Good work :)

I love this, all of it. Fourth stanza, something about that description of "smiling against the grain"... made me smile as well. This is one for the list, lightbaron.

I really like your style. It's like Bukowski but a thousand times more meaningful.
