First off, why isnt anyone posting anymore. It seems that more and more people are signing up and no one is posting. Continue to reply and post please!

‘Pelletal Stream’

Eyes deprive of disclosure,
Stemming from wrong;
Drip, drop, drip, drop…
Pellets fall to my cheek.

Hands ticked a long time,
Since pellets fell;
Splish, splash, splish, splash…
A mirror of water.

Infamy! for your quarrel,
That’s caused pelletal streams;
But oh, your just joshing,
That’s a dark-side of the face.

Blah! to your fibbing,
Making my dreams nightmares;
Faded dungarees of memories,
No longer exclaim inside...
For that, I congratulate you;
And thank you for my depression.

Jeremy, this is wonderful. The usage of words like drip, drop and splish, splash really amplify the piece. It gives it that added element of depth.

And I DO post. It is actually a good thing when I don't write because it means I am happy.

Another nice one.

you have defenitely grown with your poetry
One thing though, The poem captured my full attention, then I feel like i got cut off in the end.  Maybe it's me, but I would've prefered probably another stanza

keep posting JD

The first two stanzas really captured me, fantastic!  But the last one didn't hold my attention.  It seemed like something is missing, but I wouldn't be able to tell you what.  But hey, it's your poem and you can have it how you like, but you said to comment on anything, so I'm trying to be honest   And I post every now and then, like usual.

I liked it, very different from your regular.........you use some onomoaoepwoapia and that's cool. I thought it was good but the ending kinda lost me.



I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

I'm in love with my shadow
I admire it daily

Yes, onomatopiea is a great thing to play around with.
I'm also a bit off by the ending.
Where's the sound FX?  ~_^
