Array ( [sid] => 144594 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Myth [time] => 2008-08-17 03:42:07 [hometext] => as a result of a sudden urge, I wrote this poem while i was thinking about my MA thesis, so it is about an artist and his reason to do what he does [bodytext] => I will turn them into a myth
All these shards that float around
These failings and little joys
This bliss covering a great despair

This hurricane drawing us
Fear is its tail
To beat its hold is the greatest
Of all the heroic tales

We the lot who has no tongue
Trapped in plastic bags
Bend and torn in desire’s way
Excel in sour tastes

These days of false pretense
Painted faces for love and care
Our colors to hide ourselves
Show a greater truth as well

I will turn them into a myth
All the tales worth not to tell
To bestow a greatness
To lives wasted and stale [comments] => 2 [counter] => 200 [topic] => 43 [informant] => net [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

I really enjoyed this. There seems to be an undercurrent of anger, or disgust; yet there is a feeling of resolve and triumph in the end. Nice write.
