Oh that simple melancholy be my only malady suffering moments of depression guilty of valiumed expression prescription bottled life a tranquilized wife. Instead an agony of breath instead of dread, a myriad upon itself, and then again does multiply without end a disease that finite cannot die in this does my futility lie. WhiteRose 08/02 |

White Rose, I've noticed you posting a lot of good work here in dark. Hope all's well, despite the resultant good poetry. ~wranx The shortest distance between two points... |

I agree with squirrel dude... I was diagnosed with a ton of stuff but it dosen't mean I am crazy, then again it may... lol I have been reading all of your work and have you ever considered trying to put a few of your poems together to create one long one? Or perhaps creating like a, urmm, I don't know what you would call it but the word that comes to mind is cluster, maybe series... help me on this squrriel... Great write though... Totally felt here. ~Jess [This message has been edited by Jessica (08-06-2002 11:47 PM).] |

Ah, but I think it depends on how WhiteRose writes. If she sits down, writes a fragment, then immediately writes another, then yes, they can probably be strung together. But if it's hours between fragments, and none of them join neatly, they can stay separate. But yes, I like the idea of a sort of collage of fragments into something greater than its parts. Though the parts are nice, too. ![]() Keep writin'! "I fall into your arms." |

All of these poems were written about different experiences, different emotions, at different times. To string them together would make them false to me. I write them when I feel them, and then move on. If I were to stay within the realm of the feelings shared in each poem I would most definately come away completely insane.
