VoyForums Announcement: Programming and providing support for this service has been a labor of love since 1997.

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.

Subject: i really feel like reading "catcher in the rye" right now...

your acid tongue
spits word, and every
cold breath you take
forms a dagger.
pointed at me.

the nerve of it all.

a turn of the head,
a blind eye to my face.
as you stumble over your
spite for me, formed
to cover that scab
of the mask you wear so well.

injected with venom.
that's me.
only a little sweeter,
cos that's me too.

and damn it all.

a different lie
makes it a little prettier
for my bleeding eyes
to trust.

i bite into the apple
that you warmed in
your hands.
the same hands
that manipulated
my head when i rolled
my eyes back at night.

eating words with a spoon.
and spitting out the pits.
