he could have just slipped into the river after all he was tired but he jumped deep cold dark water quiet place not silent but quiet he floated up to green dappled water warm I answer no more questions Feel no more feelings Think no more thoughts Make no more decisions he rested in the water becoming a thought singing a leaving song praying a green forever prayer slid quietly around the hard smooth wisdom of rocks floating toward the sea toward no more then the river branched |

I enjoyed the dark journey of this poem, but somehow feel it may be crossing over the guidelines if I am reading it correctly, so I am very glad I got to read it. A very vivid depiction in this one, and enjoyable read. "There's nothing worse that being an aging young person!" - Richard Pryor ~ Carpe' Diem ~ |

I've been away, almost nonexistent here, during the month since you joined. Now I regret it even more, because I didn't get to say a proper hello to someone who writes magic. ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸¸¸ºº> ~~(¸¸ ¸¸ºº> ~~~(¸¸ER¸¸ºº> ______________Ratleader______________ |

I came back to read this again, and see how many ways this could be taken, which of course makes it even that much better! I like it too! |
