Array ( [sid] => 134669 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Explicit [time] => 2007-05-24 15:09:26 [hometext] => Basically, i can't express myself. Obviously poetry is expression, but I hide the real thoughts in words rather than truly show them [bodytext] => Explicit.
So it says
On the music that
I hear every day

Explicit.
So they say
In the movies that
I see all the time

Explicit.
So they say
Of the books that
I read every day

Explicit.
So it says
Of swearwords that
I use every day

Explicit.
So it says
The vocab book
I do every week

Explicit:
It's all around

And yet there is no way
To say what I really want
No way to shout it out to
The unwatching world

So many ways to say
I'm *****
So many ways to say
That sucked

And yet I can't explain
The feelings that within
Are eating me away
An acid with no base
Can't form the water
With salt spray
Leaping from the rocks
As the torrential wind blows
A lullaby caucophony
Nothing but the edge in sight
And blue, calm blue
Rising edges rapid changes
Lapping licking fighting
Calm
I throw myself to the wind [comments] => 1 [counter] => 174 [topic] => 43 [informant] => aplsdka [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 12 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

I liked the piece. I found it interesting how you change the rhythm to the write. I loved that ending stanza. Your last line I could see so well.....
(Calm
I throw myself to the wind). Nice ending.
Peace, Laura
