I knew the art of eyeing thread within the sliver of a dawn I knew the contrast of silver-- slip o silk and through--beyond... I wish I'd write a better play. I wish I had a better thread... upon a spool of time... spindled... oiled by the drop I bled. I wish I were... I wish me gone. I wish I wish a tide in song... pieces of me on the shore add me to collection for? I am just a tide in rise... I'm just the lace-loop stitch--demised.

I liked this poem's musical qualities and the effective way it expreses deep emotion. Your style reminds me a little of Sylvia Plath's. Is that a coincidence or have you read her a lot? Thanks for sharing. |

This is beautifully done, Serenity. I especially liked the meter that you used to ever-so-finely tweak the flow. I especially liked the image of the threads, and the use of the colour silver... "contrast of silver..." what contrasts with silver? If you knew, then tell me. ![]() You sure do like to make me think, don't you? ![]() Parasite Learn to place poetry before people |
