Drip, drip..
Executioner’s
Song, I
Shook his
Hand

Here we go
Again

Take a hit
For the
Team,
In my bath tub,
Naked, I land

Brown water,
Wash my
Skin clean,
Drip, drip..
Sewing the
Seams

Drip, drip..
Paper doll,
I’m a
Paper doll –

Rumplestilskin

WEIRD!!!!!!! *shivers* I'm in love with it.
Mi oh my oh! Simply splendid poem....confusing, and I think I sorta-semi-kind-maybe-got-it.....but reassurance would aid me in knowing with whether or not my assumptions are correct. Regardless though, awesome piece.

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

This is such a wonderful poem, I really enjoyed reading it, the simplicity leaves much to the imagination of the reader but it still has incredible imagery

Well, tell me what you thought Javi and I'll tell you whether or not you got it. Personally I think it's unimportant what I say it should be, but if you want some reassurance then I'll give it to you.

Thanks.... the both of you.

this one's got a style all its own. the words read like they're dripping... fast at some points, slower at others when the fatter globs drip down.

i like it.
i dig it.

no one should suffer alone in a bathtub.
it's a horrible place to suffer that song...
but then, that's a bit hypocritical of me.

hey,
holy stoned purple monkeys in a basket, i loved it! that's kind of weird to say about such an odd piece but oh well.  the words do appear to drip...and they're still sort of flying around in my mind.  so again i shall say this was a pretty cool piece. good job good job.

maybe i'll catch fire, something nice to warm me. something pure to burn away the darkness, that hides inside my mind. -alkaline trio-

all i can say is WOW!!! nicely done!! bravo bravo...lol. great poem, its simple but sophisticated at the same time. I don't think I fully understood it though. The ending kind of has me wondering "rumplestiltskin rumplestiltskin" but the entire poem put me in awe. great work!

Amazing write!!! Deep and confusing to the naked eye...just begging to be examined!!! I loved it so much.

Sometimes I get so weird
I even freak myself out
I laugh myself to sleep
It's my lullaby
