prefabricated clouds stack the sky, thick as curdled milk, they frame the muted trees that line the row houses, pieces placed strategically on a game board, no thing moves, life's a stalemate, the pallete dipped upon by overused brushes, poetry no longer paints here, even the blackbirds freed of the magician's hat can't slice the fugue state, getting lost in the pockets the loom of clouds are weaving [This message has been edited by inkedgoddess (09-15-2003 09:56 PM).] |

At first sight I thought you'd drawn a pun from Ahemingway..... ....but it wasn't so, just the perfect title for a wordsong of subtle tones and shadings, that shows a feeling I've known all too often. One line isn't true, though -- "poetry no longer paints here," ....maybe not there, but most certainly here, because while this is not written in your most usual style, it's one of your best. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> |

lingering and solace, those feelings which give us a chance to ponder and feel good. That's what this write did for me. Thanks, enjoyed. mysticpoe If nothing is something then everything is our thoughts and feelings and all that exists. [This message has been edited by mysticpoe (09-16-2003 09:55 AM).] |

Well we can tell your head was in the clouds! Just kidding around. This made me think of those days you lay in the grass, and look to the sky to see if you can see a form of something in the clouds. Very nice to read. SharaRose @-->-- Of sound, and speech let all lift the hearer! |

This is one of, if not, the best poem of yours, that I have had the pleasure to read. Enjoyed! "If this grand panorama before me is what you call God...then God is not dead." [This message has been edited by Opeth (09-16-2003 02:08 PM).] |
