In the theme of change I bring you

The brainwashers

Real, so real, real, something you can feel
Hate, so much, much, something you can touch
Dancing with dead,
People dancing in my head
Diarama speaks through
In every little piece of
The vision of the blood I saw
Gripping with these hands of flaw
Need not wear a vest
Agility alone will save my flesh
And valor and courage will king my quest
Doing what I can, what I do best
Slicing my way west

Plastic Flowers


Do plastic flowers
lord themselves over
their once living, soon
to be quite dead cousins,
because they'll live
in near perfect beauty
forever?

Or, do they weep
and stare longingly
at their freshly clipped
fellows, who are more
cherished in their
brevity than they,
jealous?

January's winner is Sik Simon. Congrat's Sik!
