Array ( [sid] => 98588 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => walking through [time] => 2005-06-19 11:40:49 [hometext] => [bodytext] => This crumbled earth on which I walk
Each step with apprehension
Accepting every challenge,
Accepting all the tension

Marching alone into nothingness
Expansive ruins to the horizon
Embers flutter through the air
Demons littered in this dungeon

In this fiery pit of destitution
Redolent with hate
I search for a resolution
One which I may delate

Fighting off these enemies
These never ending battles
I live to fight or to be fought
Never free from my shackles

The ground gives way
Evil emerges from the depths
Seducingly - it grasps me,
As I slowly drift to death [comments] => 7 [counter] => 229 [topic] => 21 [informant] => wizard [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )
walking through

This crumbled earth on which I walk
Each step with apprehension
Accepting every challenge,
Accepting all the tension

Marching alone into nothingness
Expansive ruins to the horizon
Embers flutter through the air
Demons littered in this dungeon

In this fiery pit of destitution
Redolent with hate
I search for a resolution
One which I may delate

Fighting off these enemies
These never ending battles
I live to fight or to be fought
Never free from my shackles

The ground gives way
Evil emerges from the depths
Seducingly - it grasps me,
As I slowly drift to death

this stanza, the last..second to none bro:

"The ground gives way,
Evil emerges from the depths,
Seducingly - it grasps me,
I slowly drift to death"

beautiful gloom in all it's entirety..
suffice it to say, everything you write
is omnipotent..

awesome write bro

Wow....

This crumbled earth on which I walk
each step with apprehension,
Accepting every challenge,
Accepting all the tension

Marching alone into nothingness,
Expansive ruins to the horizon,
Embers flutter through the air,
Demons littered in this dungeon

Awesome write...loved how it all began....

I felt this. I get it.

You may have posted this as "life poetry", but this write is unquestionably
dripping with darkness. Gosh I love this piece. Damn. I've heard
of the "smell of fear" before, but of hate? Bloody exceptional this was.

The imagery, the metaphors . . . the conception! Wow !!

A magnificent portrayal of the darker side of life . . .
And spoken with such clarity . . . your insight is extraordinary. Your inner
voice speaks with what some may feel are clandestine thoughts . . . and
you pour them down on paper with the most fierce audacity !!

A most magnificent write, dearest. And well worth another read, (or ten).

Wow, this is like totally WoW. I love this fantastic piece by you dearest Paul~ One's battle within himself as voices long to free themselves. You beaut, this is the other side of life the dark one we try so hard to conceal. You have penned it so well. An outstanding write~ Totally hooked from beginning to end.
Excellent job dearest Wiz~
