Library of A Long-Past Me A bulging tome containing square roots, gray roots, sandbox play and foreplay. One bellied volume showcasing sibling's nightmare unease, childbearing pleas, winter shut-ins, spousal's emotional shutouts. A ledger of accounts crediting yesterday's transparency, debiting tomorrow's itch. Unproductive, gathering dust, used as props under the weighty history of another still fertile, able to speculate on mine. ...chanson~ "Music, when soft voices die, Vibrates in the memory..." P.B. Shelley |

I'm not sure what you were trying to get across, but from what I got out of the poem, this is very, very well written...and if I were the one "still fertile", I'd have a sense of shame and unease after seeing this...  With a little piece of tomorrow, You'll have to kiss yesterday goodbye. Because today won't last forever, And the past will only make you cry. |

Upon/after my death, would my life appear interesting to others? In my opinion, probably not, hence the last verse...that my history could prove useful in showcasing another's more exciting life. I think that's what I was trying to say with this poem. *grin* Your visit and comments are much appreciated, Broken_Winged_Angel!  ...chanson~"Music, when soft voices die, Vibrates in the memory..."

As we each write our 'book of life' we wonder if anyone will remember. I guess that's one reason I write - somewhere, someone will remember me I hope. Like this one a lot!  |
