The Clock Dim Light From the pale face of TIME Distant memories Of new beginnings D r a g g i ng into history Pale face Motionless hands A dead heart Trapped in a cage Entombed within stone Decaying as Time stands STILL. My first post for quite a while now, sorry I ain't been around much but when I can't write I don't feel upto reading much poetry.

LOL I agree bout the critique. ![]() ![]() I always look out for interesting, slightly outside the box poems from you, and I wasn't dissapointed with this in the least. Sometimes I hate time tho, it goes so slow when you need to rush thru it...and it never drags when you need it. ![]() Nice to see you round again Jenn "I want love on my own terms; after everything I've ever learned. Me, I carry too much baggage..." |

Zu, the usage of HTML in this piece really picked it up. By bolding some words and putting others in italics, it gives a different feel to it rather than a typical standard writing. I found I could apply this to many things and the use of imagery is once again, wonderful. You never cease to amaze me. It's also good to see you posting again. Hope to see more soon. ![]() ~AF~ If this is all the world has to offer, I want a refund on my life. |

I really liked this it expressed"time" wonderfully and in such a creative way. You've got loads of talent The world is like a mirror; frown at it, and it frowns at you. Smile and it smiles, too |

Welcome back, Zu! "Pale face Motionless hands A dead heart Trapped in a cage Entombed within stone Decaying as Time stands STILL." This reminds me how much I missed your work! Very beautiful words you portray here. I loved the emotions through this piece. The power is amazing. Very nice work, as always! Post again soon, will you? --Marie If there's one thing I've learned, it's that the most frustrated people in the world are those who know they're stupid, but keep trying anyway. |
