yes, yes, I'm terribly behind in my poetry making. And it's been so long that this one is unpleasantly fuzzy. There's a lot of stuff I want to work out with it. I don't like the gifts paragraph so much, but I like the idea of it. might have to recraft it. Dance of the Fireflies Perhaps your light was inside you. A candle in the Hollow of your brow. Fireflies behind your eyelids. I never saw it. You never let me. Furtive shadows played over your face. I watched you quivering in half-light, uncertain You never met my gaze. You never kept your word You were dappled and imperfect and you didn't care. All sorts of fragile gifts from your hands: Crimson droplets of petals on the cold stone, Half a bright smile, discarded twists of paper, Vague fears of worthlessness and doubt. Now you send your clay golems in your place. Fingertips along the polished surface of your Face come up with unfamiliar indentations. They shatter, clay pots on the ground, all shards and hollow. I want to open you up to the difference Between middle ground and uncertainty Between compromise and apathy; To let a sapling form itself of your ankles; To welcome the fireflies forth from your sockets. I want to scream your name in rage, Push you underneath the dark, Hold you there until you stop kicking. No more uncertainties. Labels: A Poem A Day |

***Tbook1 (Time and Chaos, needs a new name, needs to be edited) ***Book of Sun (Just needs to be edited. Tis a Nano novel) ***Book of Whispers part 1 (Does not jive at all with part 2; needs to be rewritten to fit and to have less suckage) ***Book of Whispers part 2 (Needs some rehaul editing, needs some loose ends tied up, needs to fit) ***Book of Whispers part 3 (Needs to be finished... then needs to die o.o Not sure if I need a third part in the series) ***Dium's Story (Needs a point, progress, anything... needs to be integrated into Tbook1, since that is what it is a part of, mainly) ***Trio Story with Jackie and Louise (Maybe we should get together and work on this, guys) ***Demon Story (This is working out pretty good so far. I like the plot, it's a bit convoluted, and the characters are interesting) ***New Witch Story (It's only 30 pages long, dang) ***Dragon's Voices (This has SO much potential! wee!) | ![]() |
