Since i became depressed i've tried writing as therapy mainly poetry. I've been told once or twice by people who know me well that i should get them published.I'd like peeps to have a read of one or two and tell me what they think.... The Clarity Of Paradox Life of agony,Life of love Death is freedom,to the heavens above. Pleasure is pain,War is peace I cut my wrists,To find release. Up is down,Black is white The clarity of paradox is within my sight Heaven and Hell,Together on Earth How do i find,My own true worth? Thunder is quiet,Silence goes bang Unity is the answer,Yin and Yang

I tried to be clever with this one, can you see both poems that follow? to do so you will have to read:- Between The Lines... Living On Varied Emotions Human Union Realises Total Stress Love,Obsession,Vain Expressions Insane? Sane? Brain Locked In Needless Devotion Standing Heartbroken. Evidently Infatuated, Say I "No More", Yet My Incredible Need Devours Dreams. Every Amorous Thought, However Innocent Seeming, Perpetuates Eternal Agonies,Conflicting Emotional Instabilities, Misplaced Affections.Yearning Forgiveness I Near Destruction.. |

Those are pretty good Krazey, they flow and tell a story(most poets all sound alike and they all do the big mistake of going off in a million directions and they like to start lines out with the word AND...big no no) Check this link out if you are looking into getting your work out there. I strongly advise against sending them to the national library of poets to be entered in thier drawing...everyone gets published and to buy the anthology your work is in is expensive. Your basically paying thru the roof for a book your poem is in along with the worlds shittiest poems.Good luck! |

I read them last night and I could not stop thinking them over and over in my mind. I did not have time to post at the moment because I had to run off. But Krazey, I love both of them! I feel your vision of life in these works. You can get all your poetry copyright protected for one $35.00 price by placing it all in a book form rather than paying to protect one poem at a time. If you need any help with some graphic design work for your book you let me know and it is on me. You should protect these works because they are special,Krazey. Thank you so much for sharing them with us. |

Thanx for all your really nice comments, bt how many of you read all three poems that i posted? It may look like i only posted two but there are three... look closer at between the lines, take the first letter of each word on a line and you have a new word...read these words down the page and you have another poem.... |

Following crumbs til they all wash away following time til the end of the day following rivers too salty from tears i've been following this river for years its crosses thru meadows and valley's and plains it crosses and scatters the mountains like veins It doesn't matter just where it may go It's been there before be it sun wind or snow I can only follow in hope I may find the truth in the answer that might make it mine I hear it whisper so softly to me "You will find the answer,keep following me" I don't know where i'm going,don't know where i've been I know I've not found it or what might have been I know that i'm tired of chasing this dream... I thought I was awake til I heard myself scream. |

time for more rambling i'm afraid... there are a few things i can't work out, like why do they put braille marks on the buttons at drive up atm's? and why, if flying is a as safe as they tell us , do they call the airport building the terminal? It just doesn't seem right to me... |
