A bit lost here. Sorry. Never mind. These dumb a*s tequilas do that anyway.

[Lyn Anderson]

Yeah, this one is one you get or don't -- basically, it is about being free and new and happy and feeling like I have peeled off the old skin, slipped into a new one, and can do whatever I want to do ...

[Marshall]

Yes, that does make sense now. Every snake must shed its skin?

[J. K. Beach]

What an Interesting play on words!

I says different things to me when I read through the lines with pauses in different places-- like "feeling like I never been" pause "wanting to sin, in my new free skin" as opposed to "feeling like I never been wanting to sin, in my new free skin" Intentional?

Am I crazy or are you a subtle genius?

[Lyn Anderson]

It is entirely intentional, but I would hardly consider myself a genius ...

[J. K. Beach]

Well, I'm crazy anyway... either you've already guessed this, or you will soon it find out.

No matter! Its a great little poem without any extra intentions. It has enough chutzpah to carry on without them.

[J. K. Beach]

Sorry! misread "intentional" as "unintentional" (been a long day). Of course you intended it, that's what I thought...

[Lyn Anderson]

funny, well, nice to meet you, I will be sure to read more, I have my little binges now and again.

short, cute, relatable.. (at least for me)... I like it!

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks, it was prompted by a conversation with another poet, and sort of spun from there. It was lonely all day until Horizon K. reviewed it.:)

[AprilRN1210]

awww, well, lonely no more... I am glad I stumbled upon it.. very cute.. I love those little conversations that lead to inspiration.. :)

[Matching Socks]

This is great, when can I buy you that drink? :)

Test drive the new skin. :)

(not like THAT boys...)

[Lyn Anderson]

ha ha your reviews are going to get me a reputation, little lady.:)

[Horizon K.]

It does feel like new skin, doesn't it-- when you have some life-altering experience that makes you realize all that you've been engaging in, without realizing they are sins--
To take that, turn yourself inside out, metamorphosize... There is a feeling of freedom-- all it takes is conviction and love, and anyone-- can change to be a new, more beautiful self...

[Lyn Anderson]

thanks for reading my little poem. It was lonely:)
