From afar, my manner may look wise, appearing clear and serene, but surely it’s just lies. Upon stepping closer to a mirror, I gaze into my own eyes, past the blue oceans, which provide a well-hidden guise. It is there that I discern the cause of my own demise, for it's as if I were staring into an executioner's eyes. TkB © Copyright 2001 All Rights Reserved Dance with me under the moon.

Embers~ I thought about the title a long, long time before I opened this one ... Riveting images of the executioner's hood, with the eye slit, assailed me. I am pleased to have pondered the anticipation of seeing what you had in store .. I enjoyed the way you unwrapped the mirrored reflection. Nicely done. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

Yes, often we are our own hangman. Very clever, perfect use of rhyme, message and flow~ Take care, Melissa~ |
