Something in me
is in need of killing...
Something in me
needs to die.
some thing
nagging
unfulfilling...
take my soul...
silence my cries...
rampage--restless,
curse of birth--
to know how much
worthless is worth...
slither, I,
embracing earth,
drinking sand
to quench my thirst--
I rage in search of rest.

Drinking sand to quench my thirst.

WOW! I think I need to stand wellback from the power of this poem.
Be well

but it is the loss that shapes the image,
gathers the flowers weaves the garland."-

Well...I was going to pick out what I like the best about this, but all that'd be left is white space.  Powerful, dark, wonderfully written...I'm jealous.

the obvious power and genius of this one is how easily and honestly the author conveys a particular feeling with wich the reader identifies so readily to the point of shouting 'Yes--that's what I mean to say' at its end...

resounding applause serenity
