Halfway struck blind in a faded gown, I find myself throwing stones at everyone around Consuming my eyes until they are no longer brown Holding mirrors up to their faces, but still all I'm getting is their pocket change On the other side of the mountain you'll find me waiting there but soon I'll slide off the ground so you better come and find me now On the other side I feel like some kind of desert thing, licking sand because it feels insane When nipples become a girl's crown, God forbid she ever open her mouth It'd turn this whole world upside down Cela passera. |

Enchantingly dark as usual  I highly enjoy reading the spells you weave with your words, you seem to have no boundaries when writing your poems. I love it!!!Kristen |

It's Greek, like you probably guessed. It means "Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior." In the Greek aplhebet, if you take the first letters of those words, it spells IXOYE (Ichthus), meaning fish. Thus, the fish is a symbol of Christianity. On to the poem.... on this one... I must say, I'm a bit lost.  "On the other side of the mountain you'll find me waiting there but soon I'll slide off the ground so you better come and find me now" "God forbid she ever open her mouth It'd turn this whole world upside down" I get the feeling you feel on the other side, apart from society. If you try and take part, it freaks the world out. You hold the mirrors up for them, so they can see themselves, but they miss it and merely toss you loose change. I'm not sure.... please do explain this one to me. Talk to you soon. Sincerely, Titus "Tesous Christos, Theou Uios, Soter" |

It doesn't matter what I think. It matters what you think. Whatever you gather from anything becomes yours. [This message has been edited by Dark Enchantress (04-06-2002 12:11 AM).] |

"Holding mirrors up to their faces, but still all I'm getting is their pocket change On the other side of the mountain you'll find me waiting there but soon I'll slide off the ground so you better come and find me now" Great write. I especially loved the part above. “A single choice can build destinies,or destroy them.” |

I agree. But what were you feeling when you wrote it? I write so that others can get what they wish out of it... but I do have a meaning in what I write. It's a balance for me. I'm just curious what you were meaning. ~ Titus "Tesous Christos, Theou Uios, Soter" |

wow, some crazy stuff here. i don't know it never would have occured to me to write anything like this. which is obviously why you wrote it :-) if i had seen a poem similiar to this, the first response i probably would of had is "what the hell??" however, your words sort of cast a spell on me, and i found myself tryin to figure out what you were talking about. the only thing that came to mind was a crazy homeless person, but aye that is just me. a very strange post, but still a great one. -bergundy- maybe i'll catch fire, something nice to warm me. something pure to burn away the darkness, that hides inside my mind. -alkaline trio- |

"When nipples become a girl's crown, God forbid she ever open her mouth It'd turn this whole world upside down" Excellent. That's my favorite part. It's kind of like a girl discovering her sexuality in a way. Well nice read, thanks for sharing. Hope to read more soon! *Erica* |

once again, i get the feeling that you're hinting at your own emotional immaturity. it seems to be a common theme in the last few pieces i've read by you. maybe i'm way off-base. but maybe i'm not. ::shrugs:: /gwen/ so foul and fair a day i have not seen. - macbeth act 1, scene 3 |
