Array ( [sid] => 95385 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Brothers [time] => 2005-05-22 19:55:58 [hometext] => If two brothers were able to contact eachother in the afterlife [bodytext] => Bodies made of light.
(Living Corpses beset in flames.)

The weightlessness one associates with dreams.
(Heavy, like drowning at the bottom of the sea.)

The Ground is soft, we walk in bare feet.
(We cut the soles of our feet daily, and how they bleed.)

The teacher is kind, he is patient and loving.
(He screams, Oh Lord how it terrifies us...)

The light here is not too bright, it settles on our eyes
wonderfully.
(Our eyes sting and burn, so dry that we cannot but shed a tear.)

For eternity up here...we shall live.
(For eternity down here...we shall die.

DNB

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. ©
