word magnets
        by: scott vee  (scvtales@Writing.Com)
words are the broken mirror
reflecting an imperfect world,
now they stick to the fridge
and you can mess with them all day:

- shuffle -

meaning is the lost empire
between the crooked lines;

- fidget -

truth is staring blurry-eyed
at words that were never there,

- shuffle -

and belief is a straw horse
that is hungry all the time.
