Daddy Bear Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 Noun. The natural physical law by which everything beautiful disappears. Medusa follows Midas as midnight follows morning. So little time we are given. So much poignancy to ignore. Shame on the rainbows the diamonds and the birds for being what I'm almost sure they are. Shame on my eyes for seeing color. Shame on my soul for having need. No one leaves the heart because no one's ever there. 1 Link to comment
tiredofvampires Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 That gave me so many goosebumps, it crept over my scalp, somebloke. Thank you, that is so powerful and real. I wish I could punch one out like that. I never read/heard this one before, but it's fabulous. I get it. Link to comment
HellFrost666 Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 I am so glad to see you back, btw. But anyway, that was bleak but profound. Link to comment
Daddy Bear Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 Whoa, "powerful" and "profound." Score! The thickly overcast mood that produced this dirge has fortunately passed, but I'll leave the thread up as a reminder of a sullen brooder that I want at all costs to avoid being. Missed you guys!

brando Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Very nice work. I love the shame on the rainbows line among others. Love the last two lines. So true. Link to comment

tiredofvampires Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Somebloke, I was confused -- you at first had underneath the poem "Joni Mitchell". I thought it was something she wrote...looks like I was mistaken and this is an original? What was up with the "~Joni Mitchell" I saw when you first had it up? Link to comment
Daddy Bear Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 I wrote the words above the line. The sig was hers, the poem mine. Link to comment
