Beyond Today..... |

Beyond today Yet….before tomorrow In that place one goes to share a dream, to weave the imagined mind. Superman had such a place Yes…cold, desolate, and secure. Where he dreamed in his life of power and worldly worry. Imagine the fears of knowing that Life goes on, even as the mind rests and resides in that place between today and tomorrow…. Living in a world of crystal and ice.. A palace carved by the hands of Immortality … far beyond the thoughts of Sampson….Delilah… No shearing of flowing locks from the head of steel. If only a world had a savior Flying past the speed of an atomic bullet into the reaches of far space and near light. Catching damsels, crooks, making the world a place where fear hides and happiness smiles In a place…between today….and tomorrow.. Somewhere after yesterday |

This is beautiful *grabs talent and runs away* I suppose we all need a hero in this world of villians. Beautifully spoken. [This message has been edited by elfin_tigress (08-25-2002 08:52 PM).] |

Barry you won it with the Superman being in it. But you really did write a wonderful piece. This falls under what I would consider a true treasure. Thomas oh the rogue part of me wanted to run when it saw the Superman. LOL |
