Prince of Void

Ashes of the late world carry on bleak and temporal mocking to and fro the princeâs void uncoupled from his shoring unsupported in ashen air trembling and brief If only his heart were stone

How does something "[mock] to and fro"?...That line confuses me, slightly.

mocking the prince's void, showing it as here and there, to and fro.

Why is everyone writing rubish poems about other users all of a sudden they're not funny, or clever, or good. It is a practice I will be mentioning to nentwined in our next conference call on the future of this website. We are currently planning to go for an IPO in the Summer on the proviso we can get rid of some of the more stale old crones who haunt the halls of this institution.

I love the second line. I keep reading it. The word "bleak" is, uh, onomonapeida (sp?), yeah. Duh, you know what I mean and I won a trophy for spelling in 7th grade, but it phonetically intersects with its meaning? Is that the word? Or does that mean the word is the actual sound, like "beep"? God I love pot.
Also,I kind of see a empty space between the last two lines?

P.S. Funny aside: the first time I read this I thought 5th line read: "uncoupled from his sNoring"; hee.

Oh, pot. At least you have an excuse.
