Thus I die knowing this-- dig a grave to bury heart. Take my pupils in pinpoint and spear them into voodoo spark and draw the ve'-ve' with my tears a puddle toed around-- remove this pounding from my ears and tell me silences be sound... I wish there were a sacrifice-- I should've bought the other dove-- where's my pipe? and my incense? Burn it. Leave the ash of love. Cloak my head b'neath the gauze... tell me reasons of what was... above my head? angels sang? Thus I am dimmed for sake of God... I have more reverence than you! The Father delights in his child-- he calls unto the Mother--"You.. come see, m'love--she's US exiled..." Now it is for them--I dance. Selling flowers in a glance of this solo rectitude... I am offspring. I dance for you... |

Serenity~ Very touching write. A tale of a broken heart and shattered dreams. Off with the sadness on with a smile. Dance solo for a little while. |

Beautiful writing, Serenity. I particularily like how you've structured the stanzas to be quite vertical, and yet, you have a meter scheme that runs from line to line. You kept the flow effective without making your device too obvious, which is interesting... I really enjoyed reading this. The images are perfect and correlate excellently with the poem's theme. Parasite Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored. |
