oh smog smeared stars
oh dark as tar night

empty echos hallowed out
falling out un-contained

guilt and scars her name itself
whimpered or swallowed

discordant turmoil pushing
to be present tired sad self

can she stand up? [comments] => 2 [counter] => 286 [topic] => 73 [informant] => ming [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => abstract ) Your Poetry Dot Com - paper tiger
