you can’t imagine the glide
right off the ledge of my pride
the tears I cried have all dried -
i haven’t cried since I died

I hope you know
nothing beats the glow
of a killing sun
on a chosen one

I hope you learned
just because it burned
doesn’t mean it’s bad
for a taddy mad

I enjoyed most of this poem-- not necessarily the last two lines of the first stanza, although I can't exactly articulate why.

I particularly enjoyed the middle stanza. Nice!

thank you, mamta! i put this one here mainly because of the title. could've been elsewhere, but i had a gut feeling that the title gives it a surreal look at least on one of the layers.

did you see the car pushed off a cliff here? LOL
