[hometext] => my whole life is like this.....
[bodytext] => _________________ Journey beyond my edges to see what I can see Lathered in spicy aromas of past indiscretions Feeling potent when nobody questions me Licking my lips I dare take one step closer Always my undoing to push too far Into the soft underbelly of strangers Who don’t want poking and prying from the likes of me No matter how much I protest I am kind and delightful company Send me off on the end of a boot flying into the cellar Despair awaits me, familiar with my abysmal poetry Hands me pen and paper and bids me start writing Humming and crying, crying and humming Until the drone of one single thought becomes nothingness Signifying the end of another chapter of me being extremely me Pull the levers and lift me out of this hole and I’ll be good I promise No more crap from me, Despair rolls her eyes in despair She knows I’ll be back sooner or later, I say never - she smiles knowingly Growing older backwards into honest mistakes and unlearning processes Tangled in roots and verbs of coercion claiming to be self-evident truth Knowing isn’t knowing anything at all but everything in its place [comments] => 2 [counter] => 152 [topic] => 64 [informant] => merry [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => ambiguous )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
