SHAME AND THE OLD MANS CANDLE (Free verse) by Garrett S Sexton
Do you like my mask? Isn't it pretty? It raises the dead. I've been awake all night.I know i'm supposed to teach you self-reliance, but I can't leave it alone.. Then it happens. It happens all over the bed.

I bet you never imagined that your subtext would be better than your writing Garret.
