Tuesday poem #67 : nikki reimer : I guess it’s time to sign up for Netflix



ascender descender pretender
disengender john (bootstraps to fender)

under the horse poem, a horse poem
under that horse poem, another horse poem

we want steffy to return to wreck
liam and hope’s wedding will hope hook up with wyatt?

ridge just came back from paris
this might put a wrench in bill’s plans to win back brooke

i recommend not messing with the structure
don’t point that thing at me:
i’m a social media officer

i’m a social media officer
don’t point that thing at me:

i recommend not messing with the structure
this might put a wrench in bill’s plans to win back brooke

ridge just came back from paris
liam and hope’s wedding will hope hook up with wyatt?

we want steffy to return to wreck
under that horse poem, another horse poem

under the horse poem, a horse poem
disengender john (bootstraps to fender)

ascender descender pretender
