Here's a response to my own poetry challenge... My dark journals I keep sun in my dark journals. It's how I build the night. I keep birds in my dark journals. They never sing in flight. I keep forests in my dark journals. The paths within diminished. I keep words in my dark journals. You wrote some, too. Unfinished. I keep shadows in my dark journals. They seem to write their own forms. I keep rainfall in my dark journals. Uncurled soundrush of storms. I keep the sea in my dark journals. Slowing apex movement. I keep songs in my dark journals. Harmony improvement. I keep tarnish in my dark journals to give your silver dimming light. I keep sadness in my dark journals to leave you seemingly no sight. I keep death in my dark journals. Whether or not you want this pain. I write life in my dark journals. Now you understand my reign. These smiling eyes are just a mirror for the sun. |

AMAZING. I love your way of writing. But then, a LOT of the work on this forum is simply fantastic. I've come to the right place ![]() "The only real blasphemy is the refusal of joy" |

Hmm... Spooky. Dark. Yet when you threatened to write this as Bronwen, I went totally on guard, so I'm disappointed that it didn't turn out dangerous. ![]() "Es ist Folter, aber ich bin fast dort." Robert Smith's Torture in Deutsch. |

Yr heart wasn't in it, huh? Look, I'm still standing on the edge of a poetic writer's block, so we'll see about me tackling this subject once I get my next Kissably chappy off. "Es ist Folter, aber ich bin fast dort." Robert Smith's Torture in Deutsch. |

I wasn't going to read these until I wrote my own answer to the challenge, but I seem to be having a word drought here. I thought the "list type" repetitions very effective, and as ya know, I'm a fan of of your daring imagery...groan...I only THOUGHT I was "blocked" before, now I am intimidated too! sigh much love to the dark genius! |
