I don't know why I wrote it or the meaning of it. I wanted to use oxymorons and words that canceled out. The scene & words just appeared in my head. Please tell me the meaning! lol [bodytext] => In hopeful depression,
I run outside.
I spread my arms and twirl
in the falling flight of
innocently evil snow.
I open my wet mouth,
cracked and dry.
I let out a hysterically serious laugh.
The air is so clean,
I'm smothered in smog.
I throw armfuls of snow into the air.
It falls back into my
hair and face.
It gives me such miserable pleasure.
I stop to look at
the darkly bright sky,
to hear the deafening silence.
I fall into a heap in the snow and sit there for hours.
The cold warmth numbs me.
I lie there with
a menacingly innocent smile on my face.
Never before have I felt so deadly alive. [comments] => 4 [counter] => 291 [topic] => 60 [informant] => WorthlesSanity666 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => insomniac )

Bitter-Sweet Snowflakes

In hopeful depression,
I run outside.
I spread my arms and twirl
in the falling flight of
innocently evil snow.
I open my wet mouth,
cracked and dry.
I let out a hysterically serious laugh.
The air is so clean,
I'm smothered in smog.
I throw armfuls of snow into the air.
It falls back into my
hair and face.
It gives me such miserable pleasure.
I stop to look at
the darkly bright sky,
to hear the deafening silence.
I fall into a heap in the snow and sit there for hours.
The cold warmth numbs me.
I lie there with
a menacingly innocent smile on my face.
Never before have I felt so deadly alive.

The meaning I get is snow can beautifull but it can kill.
So like life It can be really good at times but then it can also be very bad at times.
This is a masterpeice as it sends out a strong message.
Very good!
Luv, huggs, bitter sweet.
Luv, huggs,
emy
