The leaden cast of somber sky reflects lost hope 'til runs in streams (obscuring vision from these eyes) are tears now wept of blood it seems . No miracle to be be-held in cruciform to be displayed , they flow as if from life-spring welled to mark the end of this charade . For though we swore allegiance to each other brother from the start , with blade turned in , I excise you now seperate , alone , apart. Wrent from this flesh and mind as one , washed clean in streams of crimson tears , 'til when at last their flow is done this pall shall lift that I see clear , we're so alike in many ways . You never were a part of me . You bore false witness , now I say , was I the fool you thought I'd be ? For ne'r could this be writ of you how great we did pretend , we two . |

A lot of hurt was pictured in this piece. You puzzeled your words together wonderfully... A dark work indeed! |

Your work fascinates me. You manage to take language and make it your own. You already know I'm a fan, so I won't bore you with adulation--smile--but I thought it would be nice to remind you anyhow!!! |

Jessica , Yes , betrayal by a close friend leaves its own distinct mark on us all . Though the details sometimes fade , it takes very little effort to feel that wrongness . Thanks Doc serenity , Thank you so much . Heap praise on me all you want ( I promise I won't let it go to my head ! ) You are much too kind . Doc Alan , Thank you . Back when this happened I did not have the words to express what I was feeling . I started rummaging around the old skeleton closet and this just sort of popped out . Doc |
