Array ( [sid] => 30272 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => In A Circle [time] => 2003-12-28 01:14:30 [hometext] => I suppose this could be interpreted as a self-portrait of sorts... [bodytext] =>
There I sat in a group all alone
Like a dysfunctional family around a fire
There I was, another clone
Another fossil in this polluted mire

Was it fake or is it real
Am I encircled by mirrors and thoughts
Was it me or what I feel
Or an obsolete series of robots

I heard my anger screaming
Telling me I was a waste
Sadness was wandering and dreaming
Wishing to be stricken and erased

Jubilance was hiding in a corner
Tired of being the most neglected
In the middle I stood the mourner
The soul which had been infected

Love gave a disappointed stare
Transfixing the heart which I had broken
In tears I say it's not fair
But Love spits upon my apologetic token

So there I was, frozen in place
A living poem, bringing disharmony to the rhyme
Sitting alone in a circle of disgrace
Waiting for the end of time [comments] => 5 [counter] => 292 [topic] => 48 [informant] => Vitreous_Soul [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => EmotionalPoetry )

Whoa, I love the idea of your different feelings with personalities and personifications of their own. A nice, fresh perspective that I greatly enjoyed/appreciated. Some of the rhymes don't lie quite flat, but that's just me being critical.

tomorrow and yesterday,
Nora

I can somewhat relate to this write and was wondering if it may have been inspired by a drug induced expierence? If by chance I'm right, feel free to private message me, because I've been through it.

Dear VS,
This one went over my head. I couldn't relate..but then I've never been in a situation like this either.....but the poem itself was great!
