Chilling mine ache-drenched soul; Bleeding mine heart o' love still sheathed winter-she biting frosty to taste in eager lust o' mine hurt on which feeds she ~ this time finale ~ Amazed I, at the damn'ed pow'r o' justification (feeling empty-cold) is it thus, that her self-illusion lies sleeping too closely to reality? eye to eye shim'ring reflections o' she exudes anger o' her freeze which deforms this world ‘round her frigid un-aware an' so- in painful recognition o' truth; "as I entered through strength, so shall I exit- through fear..." |

Beautifully written... and very unique (as Mariee said) I'd take a stab at responding but I'm afraid that I may perhaps be interpreting it incorrectly. I liked it though  very well written.-molly aka sam< !signature--> "One does not discover new lands without consenting to lose sight of the shore for a very long time." -Andre Gide [This message has been edited by MyPenNameIsSam (edited 03-14-2000).] |

Marie - Thank you, that was the express effect I was searching for! Sam (molly) - It's my firm belief that a reader cannot misinterpret a poem! Thank you! Devina - I'm ok, and waiting for the summer heat! Marge - Thank goodness indeed! Thank you! |

I'm not going to tell you that this poem is fantastic! *though it is* I'm not going to tell you that I love the form and the imagery! *though I do* And I'm not going to tell you that you are a great guy who manages to write magnificently every time you sit down in front of a computer! *though I think you are!*  |

If the mark of a great poet is being able to come up with unique ways to express thoughts, you qualify without question. |
