Hole In The Earth

by Nix   Jan 12, 2008


That story cannot be told...
Why?
Because of inner hedge-hogs
and rugged lack of air.

It's the same as confessions-
insecurity;
hands of distant saints brandish
and twisted realities crawl
over the bottles of vaporizing twilight-
the real one- uninspiring...
and I suffocate.

Tears are letters that we whispered;
stoned vision is actually
a tragedy entwined with metal thorns.

Like the whole world's ploughed
... isn't it?
... fear, fear... fear screams "FEAR"
that leads to fear of fear.
Divinity or curse... I wonder
while I open eyes sodden with blood
of trampled corpses.

Everything is faltering,
revolving...
... falling on my knees,
the world's merging with background.
No, I don't want to believe in announcements.

With eyes wide open, awaken,
aware of risen nightmares
and confused, oh... endlessly confused.

Earth drowned into itself,
air razed,
and gravediggers worked for living...
graves are holes,
the hole's in the earth
and bodies pushed down too fast,
eternally
down...
... memories dance dreadful tango on skin.

    Breathtaking. you write with such ardent imagination that blew me away from the first line. I am truly awed and mystified by your writing. you are an amazing poet. (:

    How you came up with this is mind blowing. your words creep into my mind and stays there, making me think and ponder on the image created.

    With that, you deserve 5/5, maybe more for this.

    You have a very vivid imagination, and I respect that.

    Wowm this was really great. I liked how you emphasized FEAR by capitilizing it, and I also liked the elipses that gave the effect of a fuller line. Your imagery was also beautiful, and I really loved the line, "while I open eyes sodden with blood". Great job. =]
