Grief weeps and gathers the doom,
While I pray it will not loom.

Sad bitter people sit back and resent,
Some other ways success makes me content.

Old-fashioned minds have melded as one,
Only my eyes think of this; there's none.

I find rather bricks instead of just one,
But there is sense of alikeness sung.

Warm hearted one that stops the flight
Remove my error from your sight.

If I stay I just might slight,
So I decide what is right,

And what is my delusion.

ok... the reason this is so incredibly awesome is probably one that escapes your conscience...

it's a multiple poem within a poem...

it reads fantastic as it is... but if you read only the first lines...

"Grief weeps and gathers the doom,
Sad bitter people sit back and resent,
Old-fashioned minds have melded as one,
I find rather bricks instead of just one,
Warm hearted one that stops the flight
If I stay I just might slight,
And what is my delusion."

then you can do the same with the second lines...

awesome. strange, i know, but awesome.


of all the things we try to find... it's only love we keep.
