[hometext] => Piece from Capias. View my writings at my blog: http://capiandreams.blogspot.com/ - Taken from parts of dreams I had, let me know what you think,
[bodytext] => The sound of footsteps surround me like a flash flood Torrents of people rise up out of the underground Thrashing me this way and that, groping my arms and ripping my shirt. The air turns slightly colder and the sky turns a deeper shade of gray The heavens look as if they are about to let loose but nothing neither a drop nor a stone The windows of the buildings that surround me are covered with black blinds I have a feeling they too wish to hide, easy for me being so small. A single bird lands on the single fence post. The bird stood tall with its wings at stretch before dropping dead on the spot I kneeled over the bird as though picking up loose change Whispering a name that seemed fitting Suddenly the world stopped just halted mid spin I looked up expecting the Lord to descend But like rain and stones the heavens had no offer Why has my world suddenly stopped? Was the bird the cause of all things? Was its life a metaphor for life itself? What significance was that single post? The last thing to come in contact with the bird Or was it my eyes the last contact to its world I simply walked away feeling anesthetized I walked the street where cars once pelted down Their drivers silent and still, stationary in time The city suddenly felt enormous breaking its boundaries I heard a crash like steel on steel, the sound bounced off walls and the gathering clouds I looked up towards the sky, towards the noise When down came the Lord with horror on his face Run He yelled Save your self.

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. ©
