Outre sight _ outre mindBeatniks, hipsters, hippie “Hair”  Flashy, faulty, fashion wear  Tie-dyed "tees" and lime green “bells”  
Burning incense covered smells   
Cryptic language, outré coiffed  
Out in public, clothes were doffed  Paisley printed flowered shirt  “Peace” their credo, no one hurt   
Counter culture, protest bound  Whither now can they be found? Outre sight _ outre mind

InspirationKisses  Pure in nature  Rain upon untouched skin.  The world watches, fascinated  By the prospect of true love found at last.  But the two must part with sad eyes,  Banned from each other by  Circumstance, they  Wither.   
Absence  Increases their  Passion past the limit.  It reaches past the sky and stars  Into a wonderland they call their own.  The only sound is their beating hearts,  A peaceful metronome  Willing their love  To wait. Inspiration

HideawayIt is the end.  My homeland's dead.  The flame is upon it,  Leading my people into the lands of Arrogance, Innocence.   
Burned at the stake,  Witches we be.  
Noose around my heart.  I am finally free.   
The Enchantress came to me.  "Let me lead you astray."  Breathtaking scenery clouds my eyes,  "Come with me to my Hideaway."   
Staring out in dead of night.  Lose yourself in storyteller's mind.  Speak with me, my star,  The ever-silent's singing heart, mine.   
Elvenpath, follow me,  forevermore, forever be.   
Hangman's Rope Hideaway

Simple Pleasure                        New day                       Early summer                  The lake is beckoning  
         So to the dock and in the boat  How sweet the air, it’s breath alive and earthen           Stepping on in, e Simple Pleasure

Cupid - A RictameterCupid!  
My eye's on you.  Silly bare-assed cherub.  Fluttering about arrow strung,  Poking your nose where it doesn't belong.  Thinking my life isn't enough  Without your intolerance.  Idiotic  Cupid. Cupid - A Rictameter
by ~pamelaski
The Wanderer       This intermittent wanderer  its breath now cold then hot.         Changing things about itself                in substance never seen.   
Bending leaves on branches         torn to gambol through the air                       then skitter on the garden path             The Wanderer

Hey I was just reading your page and

"Congrats! Unfortunately since no one voted for anyone else's there are no second and third place. We are going to try voting by poll this month, perhaps there will be more that actually vote if I do this!"

This made me laugh :)
