D'e J`a Vu Again the ancient door creaks and groans pushing back dust barely settled from time immortal ~ Through swirling fog a distant light explodes with deafening twisting truths ~ The ground shatters beneath my feet as i hover helplessly above a boiling hideous vortex ~ The voice of truth explodes from above each shockwave progressively weights me down ~ I lift my legs to avoid the searing pain as nauseously blistered hands take hold ... ~ and my scream is but a gurgle ~ Unconsiousness welcome but never met the screaming pain still rising yet each fibre ripped apart to molecular particle ~ Riding the vortex of purification ... ~ Separating sins from soul ... ~ Then finally ... ~ Spit out the tail only to be caught by the uterine web With the voice of truth still taunting " better luck this time " ~~~ I'm not ugly! I'm just visually challenged! |

I love the eerie scene that you've created with this one...quite a bit to think about! Open arms can be the most fragile in the world... |

Thanks everyone ... your kind thoughts are very well received ... I seldom write this style of poetry becuse there seems to be a larger call for laughter But since there are people here that like this type ... I'll see about giving more Rex}<{{{{o> I'm not ugly! I'm just visually challenged! |

Hay T-Rex, I'm not really quite sure on the SP but I guess that it will do, something they call poetic license I have but sometimes just to guess. But I like it, you have underlining emotions I feel that you'll in future project. Should I say I like it. Roll on my friend, Roll on I'll be reading to the end. |

Rex, I enjoyed this greatly. Hope you'll still share your laughter with us too, as I enjoy that even more. |

thanks lucky and munda ... I guess I'm not feeling too happy these days I may not be writing much any more ... perhaps it's time to hang up my pen and go back to gaming on battlenet Rex |
