For once, I just wanted to write a poem that's just goofy... ========== I'm swept into a world Beyond my imagination Full of the real And the surreal I am lost. Captured by the innocence, Enchanted by the images I face As I bump into a tree. Ouch. Subconsciously, I retreat In a mad daze. I wander aimlessly about. I seem to be searching For something. Can't find it. "Blind bat," I tell myself. I bump into another tree. Dizzy, confused, and lost I run, or stagger Into someone. It's me. We stare at each other. And stare. And stare. Life passes We become old. Our reflections withering Our eyes Dimming I still haven't found what I'm looking for. Where am I anyways? Dangit... Coffin. |

NO....no this was not humorous....this was great. I can see how it could have been taken as a funny poem, but I saw a deeper side to it.....very well done....very very well done. I mean if you didn't tell me it was supposed to be funny I would have just taken it to be one of your good poems. This was really well done. The deep side to it really hit me. I liked it so much. Hope to read more "funny" ones hehe. I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust. |

What is with you and bumping into things? I think you use it to symbolize something, but I can't seem to think of what it is. A little insight would be appreciated thanks for sharing hi Sweets, Lizzy, Ina, Erin, Erica, Minna, Kit, Kamie, Javi, Jenn, Sharon, Nan, Cawlee, Allan, Val, Sara, Justine, Leah, Jess, Kimmie, Maree, Michele, |
