Great within the wall behind China dishes, Hides a hidden room and a soul's Unvoiced wishes. There resides the man Who knows a writer’s every trick; For twenty years he studies, But of merit, thinks that he's been licked. He shouts at ME through the wall That I must write, and so must he; Then, flattening silence. I feel he disappears, skirts away his All. Master bricks away his thoughts Hidden behind old China wall. ~~~ miscellanea [This message has been edited by miscellanea (01-07-2006 02:25 AM).] |

Thanks, Jo. The master writer hasn't written his masterpiece, yet. Has written and re-written short stories hundreds of times, but hasn't written what he is meant to write. It is there, but too painful for him to put it down. I shan't say anything more. |

Ms. Celania Hmmmm, My imagination recalled a chapter in a Castenada book, Don Juan was teaching Carlos a lesson... But my guess is that this is about a muse of yours, who will not release his magic through your words... If either guess is wrong, it doesn't matter, I still enjoyed the poem.... ________ _____ice/ford ><> |

Dear Misc, I think this is truly one of your best, it gives goosebumps, because there is so much truth, pain, hope, trust ... what needs to be done, has to be done! Extremely captivating! Love, Margherita  |

Ah, Misc'e... T'what, t'whom does it matter, other than to you, the hearer of voices, the bearer of clues... as long as the poetry's writ... and then placed before our view... so that we may sit... before the china in its closet, with you. |

I appreciate all of your responses. Some may think it is a muse; I think it is a very special author who has never published what is dearest to his heart. In any case, this was written about him, whether muse or not. May we continue to express! Thanks again, misce |
