Random Items make up my life, An antique sword or battle knife, A perfect shot that only touches net, A fingertip catch that makes the chains reset, Imagination and all its grandeur, A passage of text that helps my dreams endure, A strong horse, broken to ride, Not just a smile, but from the girl […]
