[hometext] => i'm a high school student and i wrote this poem in may 2002. this poem was actually inspired by a robert frost poem (kind of an echo poem like my other poem "outcast" but not as directly). it may be a bit incomprehensible to the reader ( i was told it was hard to understand), but it's open to anyone's interpretation. i think the alignment gets messed up on this one as well (as with "outcast") so, again, if you're real interested, let me know and i'll send a copy of the original version.
[bodytext] => The darkness envelopes me as a friend spiritless arms embracing my movements Wetness falls across my cheeks Repetitively the tears of the sky she cries for the corruption, the immorality all evil. Away from it all, I find myself alone. Poverty-stricken houses decorate the street With no one there to protect no dragon to guard from all evil I avert my own gaze but to no avail I am surrounded by slums of the world Ashamed of my fortunes. I stop and let the world move past me as though all are running from an unseen monster But one in need hinders the madness Even though his distance his far he manages to put a halt to an avalanche I venture further into the darkness and rain Guided solely by moonlight her face looking down upon the world am informed gaze with the world’s manifest destiny. Providing no start No finish The night is my friend revealing all I’ll ever need to know and learn.
