The World Is Ugly Today Step out the door, heavy, into faces, distorting my view, the world is ugly today, and perhaps remaining cradled in the bed we once shared would save my wrath from reaching any one or thing undeserving. Tightly sealed and partly on my way down streets as gray as the pigeons cloak, those ones that tangle my steps when rushing for deadlines with little meaning when I give it an ounce of thought, knots of new chasing me when there are barrels in my life deserving the energy I waste on hate, but these faces, so distasteful and judging, lacking real, just attract my anger, they feed off of the result of you, and I should have just stayed, sheltered the pain caused, and digested it before seeing outside again, for the world is ugly today as I step outside this door, heavy. |

Reading this gave me a feeling of being eveloped in a heavy cloak. I send you sunshine and smiles, take care! "The heart and soul have no illusion of boundries when friendship is the quest" ~ My Angel. |

Hi flaming poet! For you ________________________________ Take away the door Take away the walls Jump off the floor Land in a meadow and listen to birdcalls Sing back to them Display your colours, you gem You're sparkling You're tinkling You’re a diamond ring Your glistening words will always sing You sweet poet of flaming days I give you this rhyme from my crazy ways With it take hugs and smiley sun rays Remember the laughs from the good old days _____________________________________ Must send your poem to the top Fire |

Bad mood, eh? ROFL...I must share this---a friend e mailed me after seeing the title and thought at first it was written by ME--you may be in trouble there, lady...lol--- So yep. You know I can relate to those gray days...far too many of 'em lately. Me? Just trudging on through the sludge. Hugs, A. |

SPITFIRE, a fine write you have shared and I was captivated as I read along each verse by the expression... Coco [This message has been edited by CocoBaci (edited 11-07-2000).] |

Hey Spitzie, or is that Spatzie  Sounds like Gaia needs the Tammy Faye Bakker beauty kit, putty-knife included, for with this un, I can see that this, your, our, his, her world needs a facelift/makeover. Now, how the hell do we get Society on talk-tv for a new wardrobe and facial? |
