[hometext] => (inspired by a dismal, rainy day)
[bodytext] => Lovely dark storm clouds grace the graying sky and raindrops splatter on the windowpanes but not my skin. I've dressed to match this coming disaster the brewing thunderclaps stirred me in my sleep! Called to me in the early hours as I stood, perplexed and nude... just listening. I've been waiting for the rain to hiss, to dance, to pour I've been waiting for my own birth to come to pass again for the time when I, barefoot, will walk again through glass shard laden streets where innocence fell and drowned years ago. where woman laid down in a puddle of her own tears The pounding roar shakes the heavens and blackens the day Rain lashes downward, washing the bruises, the blood away. The streets are empty, barren Not a soul to whisper. Barefoot I will walk, Crying I will lay, and bloodied I will let myself be washed away [comments] => 2 [counter] => 195 [topic] => 49 [informant] => Inevitable [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 5 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => mystical )
