[hometext] => A new character enters my garden. I scarcely believe that more than a year has passed since I entered this realm.
[bodytext] => ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ From Blood Flower: 14 A flash of silver raised for a moment above their heads A wicked looking blade that sliced down quickly A loud triumphant cry went up from the men They fell away, as the blade wielder lifted both arms One hand still holding the long curved knife In the other, Ivy’s head hung from her hair I stood frozen for a moment in shock and despair Then my scream of rage and anger broke the air And the dust that had been Ivy, climbed up the alley walls ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BLOOD FLOWER ( INTERLUDE ) I am no stranger unto shadows Though I consider them not my friends They provide a certain cold comfort And in their dark embrace Do I feel at home I have long lived beneath the eyes of many Overlooked and unobserved, unworthy Even of the slightest of glances Just another neglected pet of These city streets I am of no more import than the wind A near invisible presence, felt, unseen A lesser inconvenience than rain From which people hide inside And seek shelter I exist within a world apart, a darkened realm Into which few dare delve, inhabited mostly By others like myself and those who use The darkness as a cloak For purposes of ill repute And it was there, within the shadows I witnessed the moment that was Destined to change my life forever For I was present to observe What they did to her And much more importantly What he did to them … and What I beseeched . . . He do with ... me Blood Flower: 15 was supposed to be titled Unleashed ... however ... a year ... tends to give one time to ponder. A new outlook, a new element, a new life ... has been Unleashed .... The author apologizes ... he will not wait a year before returning again *Nazmythian ~* [comments] => 4 [counter] => 196 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Nazmythian [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 25 [ratings] => 5 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

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. ©
