what happened to you? you lived through hell, and came home to find a more insidious trap sprung. may your wounds heal, and may you find peace.

if you feel the need to change so as not to offend, poetry is not for you.

you know you love apple pie.... J baked a fresh one and locked it in the pantry of desire, but left the window open just a crack so its sinful steam would steal silently, secretly, deviously... until, having infused its essence, you surrender your soul... leaving you nude. with pie crumbs ornamenting your dark triangle of shame.
on would i be considered crazy by silvertongueddevil 31 Jul 2002, 10:04 AM
ode to obsession and passion overwhelming. i grok. aside: read 'perfume' (a novel) by patrick susskind.
lamplighter, bring me a lamp.
i like being turned around like that, and told a secret.

on HOW DO I WRITE by kawakurdi 31 Jul 2002, 6:50 AM
i like the idea very much, but i think the final stanza loses steam a bit. it's more...vernacular, maybe, than the images you paint in the rest of the poem

i'm ALWAYS nude. it makes the day go smoothe. ly. um. er. mmm. -=Dark_Angel=-, keep churning em out. keep reminding us of our *essential* baseness. keep your dart gun pointed at ignorants. [sic] p.s. who holds the key to unlock your nudity?

stain upon my screen / her emotions manifest, / scathe my jellied orbs.

so, you got dumped. you wrote this to help process the pain. very constructive. maybe your therapist would have been a more receptive audience than the crowd here?
last time i checked, poetry utilized metaphor to express ideas.
maybe he dumped you because you have no imagination???

on Jericho by goldfish 25 Jul 2002, 11:24 AM
'ages are such fickle things'...'marble never lives'...two of my favorite pieces of a well-crafted and rhythmic treat. nice.

how many times does will you take it, as a woman, before the healing begins?
