coded message

Submitted by Edevold on Fri, 2010-12-03 14:25

under the layers
of simple text
are these
coded meanings

and they are
difficult to
decypher without
knowing the writer
or something about
their motives

It's not at all
easy to find a
place to start
or a point of reference

It's all in there
you just have to search

reading is the only option
begin at the
first sentence

it helps if it's
interesting

Review Request (Intensity): 
I want the raw truth, feel free to knock me on my back
Last few words: 
I may edit or rewrite this ...............
Editing stage: 
Editing - rough draft

I like the thought behind it, and it was interesting enough for me to read all the way through. What was your motivation? LOL ~ Geezer

There is value to commenting and critique, tell us how you feel about our work.
This must be the place, 'cause there ain't no place like this place anywhere near this place.
