Our Hands A Rock and A Throne

by Steven Topaz   Jan 3, 2009


And here i lay dreaming,
of your mistaken disease,
Four-Thirty and counting,
your heart I have siezed,

and with your strong beats,
of your mended dreams,
and with my thoughts,
it will be as it seemed,

Ive got your hand,
a rock and a throne,
gripping you so tightly,
you lightly moan

You back up,
that look in your eye,
seeing in them,
why I don't cry,

and up the great stairs,
memories await to be made,
we share the throne,
we go off like a hand grenade

and with the rock,
that we will fight,
to save our freedom,
to do what feels right

    I agree, the title really made me curious and thats why i decided to read this one. I thought it was very clever. The poem itself was very good and the rhyme and flow were good too. I liked the simplicity.. :]
    Well apart from that i dont really have much to say.. great work.

    I love how you give the descriptive words "rock" and "throne" in the title to make the reader wonder. But then wait until halfway through the poem to actually encorperate it in. And at the very end, how you finally describe what you meant, it was wonderful and held my attention the whole way through. Great job. 5/5
