~Revision~ .. there are monsters inside With pure adhevsive of nothing other than my fear that adheres to the monsters I keep. They are passive here Daunting me from a distance that i can never grasp... like the sinking sand that pulls me out of my mind and pushes me out into the wilds of my world. The goldfish that always stares seems soothing to the part of you who keeps taking the pain ... Remembering every silence that screamed up at you when you try to make sense of this place you are at. Where Oz seems sane and your home is the last place you can think of that would make you feel safe. Pieces keep floating off and I keep blowing a wish by each and every ounce that I pray I will NEVER see again... And if i'm gifted... I'll learn to color in the monsters with something other than myself ... |

I don't know why this poem wasn't responded to...I think its excellent...but, it's really deep and one has to read it more than once and become immersed in it to taste its true flavour..I found each time I re-read it I enjoyed it more. You know how busy people are making themselves today...multitasking is the latest drug of choice...and I know how disheartening it is when you post a poem...most of which are pieces of our souls and no one takes the time to read them...don't give up on us, looks like you have good things to share. |

Carman... I apologize for not posting... I am new to the site and have my own crap going on inside of my head. It really is a fabulous poem. I don't apologize unless I believe I am in the wrong and I definately am. I am a rather selfish, self-centered person so I forget things sometimes. I also have to say that I respect you... you spoke out! You stated your thoughts and feelings and that is the type of person that I am. For that you have earned my respect, as well! |

I must join the ranks and apologize. A very good poem, I loved it. "And if i'm gifted... I'll learn to color in the monsters with something other than myself ..." My favorite part I have to say. |
