Silhouette of black upon white empty canvas in the moonlight A single drop frozen by the tip-tap of time Brazen cheeks flushed and lined Ohhh . . . how they stare numb in the deep, dead of night Someone has stolen once brazen sight A still life absurdity brush in hand Paying homage to nothing left to understand Painting a portrait a palette of fears Sabel strung bliss black on blue in years Mahogany hollow once two rivers of bliss Now birth quivering tears never to be quelled by a kiss [This message has been edited by littlewing (08-25-2003 02:21 AM).] |

Very beautifully written. Wicked write. I'm kind of out of it now, so perhaps later I will look very in depth at it and give you something more. But it left an impact on me. |

I get that felling of, solitude, like when sunlight mesmerize's the stillness of the past. When it shines on/in a chosen place/thing at the right moment. Nice writing. mysticpoe If nothing is something |

this is a sad write, i can't tell if it is a good thing to not be overcome by a kiss, because i am, but either or, fantastic write "in a past life i was a woodcarver's knife: the sharpend blade of a wood cutter, the eldest son of the chief's brother: a maker of drums" |

Ryan, nuff said thank you so much - as long as you came away from it with something is all that matters to me thank you poe, insightful there . . . yes solitude and the shining is the moonlight, but also the sun, as you pointed out to me. That;s why I love crituques, you see things in your writing you didnt even know were there . . . thank you Thank you Maggie, yes sad . . . *smile* YOU inspired me to write this in one of your threads! Thank you eor . . . I don't think it's a good thing to not be overcome by a kiss . . . and yes, sad thank you Thanks guys xxoo |

This is sad...:'( A still life absurdity brush in hand Paying homage to nothing left to understand Seems there's nothing left to feel. SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |
