Fading barn on a sad gray hill, Weeps in silence as all is still. Cowering sun and bold faced clouds, Hidden ‘neath mystic shrouds. The barns red paint corrodes away, The barn dies more each passing day. The doors swing open and all is seen, The other side a faded green. A dismal place of sickly heat, Raw wrists in shackles, hot coals on feet. More to this barn that just its whole, A gateway to the darkest soul. The evil within’s been there since birth, Uncontrolled it shakes the earth. Fingers from the sky reaching for the ground, THUNDER! LIGHTENING! FRIGHTENING sound. Epitome of all that’s lost, Why oh God this costly cost?! < !signature--> " How can i feel if i can't breathe..." - Godsmack [This message has been edited by ThyWizard (edited 01-23-2001).] |

ThyWizard, I liked this poem, although I'm not sure where you were going with the shackles and hot coals! I loved the image of the barn bleeding into the earth. Write on Kethry Those of us who refuse to risk and grow get swallowed up by life. Patty Hansen. |
