VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997. We are one of the few services online who values our users' privacy, and have never sold your information. We have even fought hard to defend your privacy in legal cases; however, we've done it with almost no financial support -- paying out of pocket to continue providing the service. Due to the issues imposed on us by advertisers, we also stopped hosting most ads on the forums many years ago. We hope you appreciate our efforts.

 The splintered planks split round the nails,
Where hinge and latch have rusted through.

I found the flower you left for me.
I could've sworn I asked for two.

If one is all you have for me,
I'll plant it here, inside the gate.

This one is perfect, all I need.
I'll buy some nails, a little paint,

And make a garden just as fine
As those with two, or four, or nine,

And here, I'll sit and wait for you,
In case you meant to give me two.
