When night falls and the reign of tears begins again with nightmare fears free to roam awakened, my heart steers the only course that takes me through my dreams; swallowing the screams the monsters of my memories seem to me simply to be collecting rent I pay for every extra day of life. I know each life never lasts, forever like the weather, incarnation has its seasons and I could rush along sideline paths and push the time clock faster on my own to ratchet up the tension without another day of waiting, but like the itch that can’t be scratched the gain is merely noise, all the while blotting out the background joys, leaving only simple toys like ignorance, and bigotry and of course my all time favorite one denial. ©2005 by icebox |

denial is a land far away , at times i wish i could go there like most i know, but, i feel, i dont deny anything, i just dont seem to do the right thing about it, or am able to. cant always judge a b ook by a cover, another created. giving up istnt denial, just knowing there is no winning.oh well. My spirit will rise |

What dear Martie said ... the NOW has its surprises, the NOW is NOW, ... sometimes we need to peel off those layers of the past to see beyond darkness, to see the sparks of beauty ... Always your poems are thought provoking and hold depth. Love, Margherita |

Icebox I enjoy your poems immmensely. Sounds to me like your weeding the garden that is your soul. Something we all must on occasion. May your garden bear the fruit of peace and joy. :-) |

ice...Great poem with many thoughts to ponder. The matrix within our mind and dreams is a place we may never fully understand. We try to control them but we can't...Paul ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ Paul |
