Digging our fingers in wood-wall cracks Puzzling through what must be done Do not weep as these beams consume you We shall never stay long, for we fear ourselves We bar the door As this rain creeps down How strong we came In our stolen box I say this now, for I do not know Through these windows I ought not go Hell has come, they do not slow Yet, through some mercy I do not choke From soaking curtains around my throat Find now in me some blistered seeds These are the things I thought I’d come to be Taking with us what we have not lost We set ourselves on coat hangers to sway and rot Through these panels we dream of self The crow still screams Through these twists and plots “Fear us now, so we forget you not.” |

It's funny taht you mention making a music video out of it, because almost all of my poems are spawned from an image or images in my head, which slowly evolve into words. I'm glad to see you've enjoyed it. |

That was intense! I must say you have a knack for getting me tied up in your words. Masterful! Yv-Goddess of Her Domain. Symbol of Truth Passion Pain. Let Her Smile Rain on the Hearts of the Innocent. |

I suppose I not ought to read dark poetry when feeling in a dark mood, but I found myself here and I'm glad I stopped by -- this is very good. Susan Happiness isn't something that happens to you, it's created from within you. Joy is a state of mind. |
