[hometext] => I told myself I'd never post this. It's very reference based and hard-hitting. I'm one who doesn't often want to cause ripples, but this fits my recent topic.
[bodytext] => Hiroshima - that’s when the last angel died the last bra need burnt - was burnt that was when love was killed and you were gone Wells - Lewisham, a dead dream same with you Orwell the aspidistra was taken back - from British windowsill didn’t you know Fitzgerald - Zelda wasn’t it and you never had a place Kafka it’s Kersey’s world now - with Ratchet’s key chain didn’t you ever listen Dali - with holes and braking things your love was a mess old man too long passed was Shakespeare Love is Dead! - Long live the Queen! Venus is now just as red - as Mars The Book makes her the temptress - the folly of the serpent - the cheap flesh slave Didn’t you hear about it in that wonderful place poisoned lands now - that’s where the angel died the very last the very one - to hold out hope - that didn’t burn - or believe in such pain to believe in peace is to hope in life, love but hope was killed long ago and ’84 is here but no man with following eyes no, this wasn’t needed Hate found itself in the last death - that of an angel. 2/10/06 [comments] => 2 [counter] => 143 [topic] => 21 [informant] => one-curly-fry [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 12 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
