D'e  J`a  Vu



Again  the  ancient  door  creaks  and  groans
pushing  back  dust
barely  settled  from  time  immortal
~
Through  swirling  fog
a  distant  light  explodes  with  deafening
twisting  truths
~
The  ground  shatters  beneath  my  feet
as  i  hover  helplessly  above  a  boiling
hideous  vortex
~
The  voice  of  truth  explodes  from  above
each  shockwave  progressively  weights
me  down
~
I  lift  my  legs  to  avoid  the  searing  pain
as  nauseously  blistered  hands  take  hold ...
~
and  my  scream  is  but  a  gurgle
~
Unconsiousness  welcome  but  never  met
the  screaming  pain  still  rising  yet
each  fibre  ripped  apart  to  molecular  particle
~
Riding  the  vortex  of  purification ...
~
Separating  sins  from  soul ...
~
Then  finally ...
~
Spit  out  the  tail
only  to  be  caught  by  the  uterine  web
With  the  voice  of  truth  still  taunting

" better  luck  this  time "
~~~

I love the eerie scene that you've created with this one...quite a bit to think about!

This certainly invokes some food for thought!! Very well written and haunting in its delivery.

Thanks everyone ... your kind thoughts are very well received ... I seldom write this
style of poetry becuse there seems to be a larger call for laughter
But since there are people here that like this type ... I'll see about giving more

ooooh...Rex Allen, Rex Allen, how you have surprised me!   This is SO ME!  I love the imagery, I love the feel of it.  I'm printing this one, if you don't mind.  It felt like a present to me!

You are SO good!  more of this, please...

Be careful printing serenity ... the vortex could pull all the ink from your printer

Hay T-Rex,
I'm not really quite sure on the SP but I guess that it will do, something they call poetic license I have but sometimes just to guess. But I like it, you have underlining emotions I feel that you'll in future project. Should I say I like it. Roll on my friend, Roll on I'll be reading to the end.

Rex, I enjoyed this greatly. Hope you'll still share your laughter with us too, as I enjoy that even more.

thanks lucky and munda ... I guess I'm not feeling too happy these days
I may not be writing much any more ...
perhaps it's time to hang up my pen and go back to gaming on battlenet
