Inanimate ``````````` that Lonesome dance across a myriad of chalk lines souls strewn askew gutter deep the agony breaking the traffic's symphony sleep, sleep down where the silence seeps and the angels creep between cracks in pavement like weeds wicked things that steal the air and suffocate the needs of those left dying there concrete heartbeat fading eroding away leaving me as empty space evidence that I existed maybe a little less that way |

Dawn, from a poetic perspective I very much enjoyed reading your words, but from a personal one, it saddened me. If this poem is a reflection of how you yourself feel at this time, I truly am sorry. I have missed your poetry and warm presence. You are a lovely poetess both on the inside and out. Loving, comforting hugs, EA P.S. Anyone who can write as beautifully as you do, is most definitely animate. |

you both are so sweetly recieved..thank you so much. this poem is part of a series, feelings that are bursting forth every now and again... i hadnt announced, but i was in a bad car accident a couple of months ago...and i have written from that "place".... im physically and emotionally still healing. so dont worry too much... its part of that process but its settling and comforting to know, you all are so supportive regardless of cause. |

I had hoped that you would be feeling better. But this, it seems, is a very strong step forward in the healing. And for reanimation, though "lifeless", you never are! Hugs |

your words become a brilliance for others to be guided by...to know in a world of despair, there is a poetess who shines like a gem in the night sky. Very well done...sending hugs and smiles to rest by your side. |
