the frozen irony of it all leaden skies beckons reigns supreme as the bitter wind howls across uncharted territories of a back-blasted land don’t you know? that it is the end of the world as you stand immobile in place unable to go forward or take that first step back into a lost moment in time crystallized snow shattered dead eyes that no longer weep damned surely as the first tear is the last down the corroded path that stresses hungry hollows black ice covers broken land no light but the endless stars no warmth but tattered rags plated winding sheets symbol of the lost glacial statues trudge endlessly in one place as it snows forever in the long dark night Lady Noggins aka Wordancer ...come, dance with me...in my world of words... |

Honey Bunch, thanks for the read. Jon, This was inspired by a metal sculpture that I saw on the grounds on the University of Vermont about three years ago. There was several larger than life, stylized figures trudging across a grassy area. They were clothe in tattered metal rages…with a look of total hopeless and despair on their blank faces. I could just picture it being an end of the world type of scenario with blowing snow swirling all around. Apparently I kept that thought in the back of my mind and just recently wrote this…. -Lady [This message has been edited by Lady Noggins (edited 10-20-2000).] |
