Thou Shalt Not . . .

Truth
It was the moment
Our feelings magnified
By passion
Failed, we, to cash in
Youthful days
Of tan skin
Pure of
Sin
Truth
And the stain of his skin
Remained
Tight as I held
Minutes,
Faded Away
Original
Sin
Truth
Today
Lost, I am to you
As falsity is to veracity
Ruptures my skin
Like
Deadly
Sin

My name is Leanne Howard Kenney. I am a former speechwriter and press secretary for former San Diego City Councilmember current San Diego County Supervisor, Ron Roberts. I am a former Sportswriter. A former political writer. A former public relations copy writer. A former newspaper reporter. A former . . . Apparently, I am a former writer. Well, that is not quite true. I have been writing poetry on my own for quite a while. And, I have been writing the odd article here and there for my own and my friends' pleasure for years. I started posting my poetry approximately a year ago. Where they came from, I know not. I am just glad they came. I hope you enjoy what I have to say.
