Witching Hour By: Noah Eaton 5/14/03 Violet comes rushing into the navy blue Witching hour starts just forty-five minutes too early The firefighters pull out the flashlights Trying to find that boy That boy who can't comprehend... I want you to love me Pretend you did even before I was born Because I've never seen the yield signs And I've confronted the vampires Vampires that can't see I've bled enough... And nightblindness strikes all around me The embers cancel out and the lampposts are burning Foreign hands shake me of people I never knew Retire myself cause I don't see Jupiter coming through Because it feels like witching hour to me... I become infatuated with fireflies all of a sudden Just wishing to have some sparks shine down on me Chiffon tornadoes come and take me away And I can't find no hospitality through the silencing PLEASE... And nightblindness strikes all around me The embers cancel out and the lampposts are burning Foreign hands shake me of people I never knew Retire myself cause I don't see Jupiter coming through Because it feels like witching hour to me... Take me away Because I keep falling back here Take me away... AWAY... What were you expecting There's no place to breathe here for you and me So turn back while you still can TURN AWAY... Take me away Because I keep falling back here Take me away... AWAY... TAKE ME AWAY... Underneath your clothes, there's an endless story ***Shakira*** [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (05-14-2003 12:36 AM).] |

Your writing is so cool...I've kept my eye out for jupiter also, and like you, it's bewitching to me too. I want so much to belive in what I'm seeing, so when they take me away I'll have something real and true to hold onto. |

There are several strokes of genius in this extraordinary piece of writing, Dear One.  May the influence of Jupiter, the planet of joy and prosperity, be with you all the days of your life! Loving hugs, Linda |

For the first time in a long time I have goosebumps...tapping into my nightmares? *hugs* wish I was a better conversationalist you know... If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried. |

This is effective and evocative and provocative, and I don't have any other words for it, but-excellent. Nan (Pilgrim variety) |
