lost in this forest of frozen desolation
as the wind falls upon me
and shadowed paths grow more unclear
i work my way through by the light of moon
and the hostilities that work within
are numbed by the irony of depression
as shadows from limbs play like black lightning
gathered and thrown out on the ground before me
by way of the aching light provided by the moon
as the disorientation works its way and sets in
i feel i will never make it home again
and my only comforts are the lingering shadows
brought by trees and solace that travels with cold wind
the gentle power of forces so much larger than i
and it all collects my thoughts as we decentigrate
together in a sense of finality straight from hollow cores

Wow, this was absolutely amazing...totally and utterly...amazing imagery...I loved the way you pieced it all together.
Fantastic read.

whoa...decentigrate.  I'm not quite sure what that means, but I get the gist of it from the rest of the poem.

I loved the imagery involved(black lightning, tis well writ)I was able to put myself in your shoes.
Very good job, into the library.

Your imagery kicked arse, Paulness. (Don't ask.. I just work here) It was a surprise to see you here... hell, it's a surprise to see you ever.   Anywho.. I liked it... your words took me to a very interesting place.

There are always answers as long as you're open enough to accept the answers you were not looking for.
