Read Me a Purple Question

by Poetvoices   Dec 2, 2006


Broken Glass,
Strings and Rags
Shaking Hands...
Trembling Ankles

Open my closet--
EVERYTHING spills
Lay down on tennis rackets,
bags, and clothes

Sit up on mountains
Drag, kick, pull, search
Finally, a bag full of shreds,
and I'm reunited

A big rock, a shard of plywood
a damaged basket of flowers
And I add, and I add...
Hysterical laughs fill the mountains:

fill the skies, fill the clouds, fill the dirt,
fill the grass, fill the books, fill the shelves,
fill the lilies, fill the walls, fill my eyes,
fill my ears, fill my life, feel my pain.

    Very origianal and just plain great I especially love the last stanza it captured my imagination like few things do anymore, and on a side note I really apericate all the comments and I do have a few new poems I'm working on, I'll tell you when I'm done

  • I like it! its very different, and slightly random. i totally love it! awesome and unique, "outstanding" doesnt begin to describe it! and i kinda think the changing rythm is neat.
