Prematurity



Since upon Night's End I haggled the Thief
And dug Old Emotion a fresher deal
As I earned a Pound's Fine for my Relief
This Vermin took my Gold; including my Seal
The Seal, which, supposed to keep you in-check
And have you posted on Events you relate
On this Printed Book where our Words first met
Stuck Thorns into Pages; which was a mistake
A Mistake, that placed a Cork in your Mouth
And allowed Red Lillies to fester and grow
Those Types I abhor; for they grow in the south
Where Salt is Sweet; and Owls melt into Snow.
Such Foolish Wisdom that Thief could provide
Was just another Body that you cannot hide.

Xavier Paolo Josh Ledesma Mandreza

Hello People! My name is Xavier Paolo Josh Mandreza y Ledesma, 35 years old, born in Makati City, Philippines and I have been writing Poetry about...early 1981...? About when I was Twelve Years...? Yeah, that's about it, heh heh! =) I'm very Open and Friendly to everyone though prone to emotional sensitivity due to my ADHD condition which I am currently trying to control...Which is why my biggest likes are being Open to people and Learning all new sorts of things and my Biggest Dislikes are Jerks and people with really Inflated Egos; So please do forgive me if I get emotional and hyperactive at times. Poetry for me is more of like a Song...Your Heart needs to Sing whenever it's Happy or meets that Special Someone you would love to share your Life and Talents with. Never deny it for once it goes it will rarely come back to you again. I hope to be an outstanding and helpful Member of this Community. Thank you. =)P.S. Please do forgive me if my Profile Pic is out of symmetry (I'm notourious for that!) and whenever I do reviews it is because I LOVE or REACT to the Poem itself and not to pass it by just to get mine published. I just want to make that clear. Thank you again. more…
