Talk About

Words in my head, returned
as did my walking feet to the ground.
Truths never to be said
and never are returned.
Static.......but.......only
Talk about how there
would be no moonlite.
Then, seerate individual thughts
of how uncomfortable thinking of the future is.

As the sunset passed and dusk was long forgotten,
there was only this darkness.
I needed to tell you-
that light is you-
that light is beautiful.

I couldn't move.
I couldnt dance.
I wouldnt leave.

Not without the moon.


This is a prose I wrote about not connecting with someone I know so well all of a sudden. Anbt feed back would be much appreciated
thanks pw

    OK... bonus points to anyone who recognizes this:

    ~~~

    I Waited All Day

    I waited all day.
    You waited all day..
    But you left before sunset..
    And I just wanted to tell you
    The moment was beautiful.
    Just wanted to dance to bad music
    Drive bad cars..
    Watch bad TV..
    Should have stayed for the sunset..
    If not for me.

    ~~~

    This is what I was reminded of by your poem.

    As for yours... I think the first half is a little choppy but has promise. Almost sounds like English is a second language. :) If it's polished, it'll be cool.

    Second half is quality. Quality, I tell you. Could even stand alone as the entire poem. I like it that way. Yesh.

    Vitalogy booklet

    I'm fond of:

    Die on a hilltop
    eyeing the crows
    waiting for your lids to close.
    But you want to watch as they eat your flesh.
    Ironic they go for the eyes first.


    Prolly not verbatim since I'm going from memory and oreos.
  • Thank you, that is the poem inside Vitalogy on the Immortality page. Thanks for the feed back the first part is choppy, I think I am wanting to say too much in the first part, PW

    Good job, Radar. You rule. After I posted that, I thought "OK, this is a poetry board for PJ nuts. Won't take long for this one to get answered."

    Quite possible, my friend. It's pretty easy to get carried away. Another poster put one of their poems on here asking for advice, and they had the same problem of trying to say too much.

    It's all good. Easily fixed (at least I think so).

    Word!
