Pick a feeling. An emotion. Something out of the ordinary. Write about it. I'm not talking about sad, or mad, or happy. I'm talking the feeling you get on a roller coaster ride, or when you feel a cool breeze in your hair. A feeling like you get when you dipped your feet in the ocean for the first time, or threw your first snowball. Let's get it done. |

Hey good challenge Kaoru. Heres my poem about having a hangover. Bottles of Booze Razorblade thoughts every morning, waking up dead again. I can’t understand the clock anymore, there is no meaning to me. Hard nights of drinking, painful days of thinking of the tears and fears, killing the pain with the fog. bottles of booze... the cold dirt I use to bury you. yoin Larry Silverstein bought the Twin Towers 5 mths before 911 bombing. He already owned bld 11. He took out "terrorist" ins on them. He won 500 million. |

It burns, my soul yearns My fever wont break This venom wont take I keep my eye on her For loves sake Though I promise Much more is at stake Loving another is Like a being apart Of birds of a feather And when your together Always and forever Never comes for Those like me Such an eye-soar But those will see A voice and a mind A choice to make it shine Is too hard to find Such a shame This world is too unkind. Feeling: Lost, Confused, Heartbroken. "We are all in the gutter, but some of us are looking at the stars." Oscar Wilde |

I actually felt that. It was sad and hurt. |

Apathy Your heated snarl, pulled close, pink- Darling why? I`ll tell you- tomorrow, perhaps or Tuesday night, after the laundry dries on the line: if it stays out all night the dew gets them. And too, I haven`t time. |

Here we go: Discombobulated Swirling tumble, twirling jumble, tossed and turned, and inverted spins. Misty movements, of disconcerted eyes. Roiling thoughts, bubble through constantly, adding deeper frets, into this furrowed brow. Confusion is but fancy, as the mind attempts, its denial fate's aria. Eternal fall of man, into depths of unknown. Dangerous slips haunt as struggles for solidity, continue incessantly. Wishful hopes, candy cane dreams, replaced by the cacophony, of ignorant screams. God it's great, to be human. Yesterday is ash, tomorrow is smoke; only today does the fire burn. |

Left my heart at home Knowing what needed doing So, I did it Brought my mind along Couldn't leave it behind So the feelings tagged along Feelings aren't always of love Those remained with my heart I knew what needed doing Out along the old back trail I found him eating his spoils She made his last meal I cut him in two with a sweep of my blade For the deed which he'd done Now comes that long walk home Sister's remains in my bag Half eaten by her killer When the cabin smoke appeared There was relief in my soul But my heart wouldn't wait Now if you trek through the woods Stay away from the cabin that smokes For it leads to a heartless man Pass the Glade if you're going to do that here... |
