An old man told his grandson, "There is a fight between two wolves inside of us. One is bad-- it is lust, pried, and lies. The other is good-- love, caring and humility." The boy thought for a moment and asked, "Which one wins?" "The one you feed."


You’re most beautiful
when you’re wrapped in midnight,
when your eyes are faded jeans,
when your skin is tatters,
when your pajamas match your wrinkled sheets.

I bet your marrow
tastes like liquor,
and your skin
the summer sun.

You have some interesting analogies in here, but they work very well.  You pain a vivid picture.  Great job!
