D'e J`a Vu ~~~  Again the ancient door creaks and groans pushing back the dust of ages stirred constantly through time immortal ~ Past swirling fog a distant light erupts with deafening twisting truths ~ Solid ground shatters beneath my feet then I hover ... helplessly above a hideous boiling maelstrom ~ The voice of truth explodes from above my every sin a shock-wave that drives me down ~ I lift my legs to avoid the searing pain but nauseously blistered hands take hold and drag me within the churning inferno ~ With blinding spin and uncontrollable suction the swirling current takes me and my scream is but a gurgle ~ Unconsciousness welcome but never met the searing pain still rising yet each fibre ripped apart to molecular particle ~ Riding the vortex of purification ~ Separating sins from soul ~ Till finally ~ I'm cast out the tail and caught by the uterine web with the voice of truth still taunting ~ " Better Luck This Time " [This message has been edited by Rex Allen McCoy (edited 06-28-2000).] |

I can't lie, I had to read it twice to get it. I love it now that I understand it though..lol. Almost everyday I come upon a situation where someone (myself included) says "Better luck next time." I don't see why rebirth would be any different.... Oh, I think I just voted for you. Guess you do have luck this time ^_~ "I'm sorry for telling u love was unnecessary... making u lose ur way. I'm sure I'll be as sad as u feel." ~Touch and Go |

Thankyou Nan ... a complement from you means a lot to me Jamie ... We need to go around the block in every direction ... before the right path is found ... seems like our destiny |

Wow ... I was floored with this verse Rex! I had to read it again with Vincent Price's voice in my head ... just loved this! You've described the circle of life with such powerful sentiments ... incredibly well penned! Best wishes, /Kit [This message has been edited by Kit McCallum (edited 07-24-2000).] |

Kit ... thankyou very much ... I would like to hear Vincent Price read it as well ... this is my favorite poem ... but it does not appeal to everyone ... and I can live with that Sunny ... careful you don't brighten up this subject ... put your low beams on [This message has been edited by Rex Allen McCoy (edited 07-24-2000).] |
