Hazy Acres

Stand here forever 

As a definition

Wrapped neatly 

Judgments 

Gifts that last a lifetime 

In and out 

Saying what is required 

Protecting with fear 

Held up by a decade 

Behind the eyes 

Behind the cruelty 

Somewhere 

A soul is waiting 

Underneath a mountain 

Mistruths 

Misdirection

Missing the point

Tastes metallic

Looks pale 

Sour heat 

Ugly 

Never at the center of an action 

With truth 

Games in a box

Playing themselves 

Roaring thunder 

Roaring 

After all is left unsaid

Then forgotten
