Alright love?

[slymcsly]

Jeff Carnage i fail to understand your posted comment and perhaps a sonnet would have been a better reply than alright love!

i find the verses above quite moving and have written one myself!

I wait for poems
I see my life
i wait for sonnets
i see my wife
I dont wait for any of these really
So why dont you poets get a life

[Paranoid]

Should I curse my own skin
Making me feel like im from a garbage bin
named and shamed for things i cannot change
You make me feel like I am a disgrace
And all because of my race
you see two men may see each other as different
Thinking its a threat
But go about sharing the same heart
what do they have to regret…
when will all this end
All I want is to blend
and to finally not pretend


I'm not exactly your greatest poet (im a computer geek turned social scientist to start with!) but I'm quite proud of that one!

Run telnet
O pesto
Setup pine
As I wait for the email that says that we're fine

Still nothing there; it's my home account next

Only message in Hotmail
Says my junk folder's full
Does MSN know that it's being so cruel?

"New Message" alert sends me into a spin
But it's not your reply that has just come in

A Newsletter from the VPS
"2 for 1 pens, while stocks last, in BESS"

An inbox so empty its thoughts have gone cold
My last real email is fifty days old

A contacts list with twenty friends
Logged on at six and was alone ftil the end

If you rang up your voicemail
You'd know that I care
Or do you just assume that I'll always be there?

You were out when I knocked
But your music was on
It's the last time I'll do it
Consider me gone

Don't want to really lower the tone but having spent 3 days in the library now I keep finding myself reading the following in the toilets!

Here I sit broken hearted
I came to sh*t
but only farted

Hats off to the author, was about the only thing that brings a smile to my face in that dreaded place at the moment!!

Raw
My feet scream in agony
Tired of my forceful ways-
Taking them down untrampled trails.
Numb
My head is full of advice
From people I've never met-
Bibliography of boredom.
A dichotomy of interests-
Adventurous Conservative.
I live to leave,
But dare one last subservience.


Enough, please!

Surrounded by power yet in possession of none,
the doctor promised me answers-
"you'll be there a couple of days, out in no time. They'll make you better."
Those words seared my mind in spitting torment
As I tried to sleep in a room where the lights never go out,
yet darker than an abyss,
As I had done for weeks.
The realisation of my nothingness was quietly,invisibly devastating.

Alice without her wonderland,
I shrunk away to a microscopic grain of sand
In the confines of that bed, that ward
Where colour and life slid away
Among a clutter of drug trolleys, morphine filled syringes, sedatives, oblivion.

The woman opposite was dying and knew.
The mastectomy was a formality, she said.
But she was more powerful and knowing than all the consultants combined.
She obliterated their tyranny
Returned me to my usual size- small but vicious.
We spoke about fear. What about the future, I asked.
Atleast you have one, she said, grey faced and soul-ridden.
More potent than any diagnosis- gave me the strength to regain my autonomy.

Rabbits come and rabbits go
bands play a song so low
the rabbits
hear but do not fear
because the badgers know the road is clear
c'mon the badgers

[Happy-Go-Lucky]

Tormented nights I toss and turn,
my heart beats hard, a pain that burns.
Perhaps next light I’ll rectify
the struggles that bring me to cry.

1 step forward, 2 steps back.
All my efforts seem to lack.
Lethal strength coffee to stretch me further
But it only makes me cry harder.

My mirror makes me feel revolt.
Life clutches my neck, it makes choke.
A hopelessness wraps my soul,
makes me want to hide in a hole.

I’ve seen that hole once before year last.
I clawed out, hoped it was my past.
But here the light seems harsh and blinding.
The hole looks once again inviting

I try to fight, work hard and tough,
but my efforts never seem enough.
Even when I think I’ve won,
your cruel mouth tears me down.

You think you saved me from that place.
You say it’s my fault I fell from grace.
But you’re the one who made me go there.
You’re the catalyst of my despair

You put your pressures onto me.
Don’t you think I’ve my own worries?
The only way that I can win
is to loose to my own pains within.

I wish to fall, it seems worse now.
Back then you tried not to be so foul.
It’s my escape, you couldn’t harm me,
only my own grief consumed me.

Thank you, Carolyn, for that brief intermission
Sadly for me, now it's back to revision.

[hr]You would not feel sadness if you never tasted joy

I am the dream of lemonade
from behind the glass


you blink
it shatters

when we cannot speak
we all sing instead
and if we dont know the notes
someone else will
