Array ( [sid] => 116809 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Diary [time] => 2006-03-21 18:54:20 [hometext] => [bodytext] => It falls open
like the most natural thing in the world

Dog-eared pages
framed with ink-stained thumbprints

Flocks of words
herded within the cramped confines of college-ruled paper

Twisting, bending
leaning on each other for support

Hiding names that hide

confessions

answers

that lead to more questions than they’re worth

testimonies posing as hasty scrawls

adjectives soaked in guilt

epiphanies cornered by commas

and

the

words

shiver

down

the

page


chilled by their own meaning

Desperately scrambling at the edges
clawing their way through choppy sentences

Shocking themselves with letters that

crumble

and

quiver

and

leave not the tiniest ounce of doubt


to what they mean



and to what they could mean

Welcome to YPDC :D

You have a good start here, this is an interesting piece of poetry. I am not exactly sure what you mean it to be about, but I love the image of the words shivering down the page, and I think the first 8 lines are very well written and are saying something many say, ina unique way.

Anyway, I hope you enjoy your time here at YPDC.

Great write,
*hugs*
