slither beneath leaves and old dirt to be
out of sight and out of mind
perhaps its more grand to be the bugs beneath boulders
or one of those creepy crawlies that keep poison in the tips of their tails
just to sting you as they run away
the likes of serpents in vines and crows on power lines
they may be liked better than those that
battle their fears head on, that dont lurk in the dark
it could be much more honorable to be the flea
living off of someone elses vitality
to be like that of the supposed disguised
those ones that keep up the face and lies
to try and be vicious when you've already moved on
perhaps, it could, maybe, oh these could be the things one strives to be
but fact of the matter is, these things are beneath me. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 137 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Marrs [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Fantastic. I was nodding my head and saying 'yeah, yeah' all the way through it. That's the thing with good poetry, like yours, it draws one in and makes one's heart pound. Thank you:)

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. ©
