no hard fee lings in fact no feelings at all a) better detachment a) better way of living days from here i'll wake up numb and transparent the b e st bri ghtest way to c ea se to make sense if i had knees to pray _ i'd think of some other way if i had my own mind _ I'd lay false thoughts in your lap and watch them disapp ear and there are no answers in this head no answers a t all they make it so easy; they swear that she brightens up the room they swear that i'll run out of room and the blood that leaks from the walls will only be my own i willput it in this pen and write till i end ...until i end.. so overflowed at times with listening to myself -whine- and i cant let go of living with - out sound all i am is spread so far theres very little left to go around but the worlds a dirty business we all do dirty business and there will always be - more to go around- no longer afraid of the dark or midday shadows nothing so ridiculously teenage and desperate |

RESOUNDING APPLAUSE imagine a big room echoing with it. and there are no answers in this head no answers a t all they make it so easy; they swear that she brightens up the room they swear that i'll run out of room and the blood that leaks from the walls will only be my own i willput it in this pen and write till i end ...until i end.. excellent ![]() The wind shifts like this: Like a human without illusions... This is how the wind shifts: Like a human, heavy and heavy, Who does not care. W.S |

Hi Jackal, I must say that your poem really captured me from beginning to end, loved the style, the content, everything. Excellent! ![]() Maree "If my words could blanket the skies and fill every corner and crevice of this earth, still this won't be enough" "Maree Russo" |
