:woohoo:
 


Centipede: it graves away, digging each step, a faint near-
er. Close call. Death, as it is an insect whose form
of fishing through the shit. (Oh you know, the grass and the grapes
and the faith and the strength
to dig up, and not down.
To sink towards the sky,
to invert a frown).
It's been cast away, with its babe on the hook.
When it was dismissed it was mistook for a twig or
mulch, and yet.          You flinched.
You SHOOK.
Was it the tiny beat of its heart
stomping its way through,
clearing its path;
a sacrifice.

Humble masturbation is to always wear a glove
Retractable regression is where we wake up
I shot down the rain, but i had to shoot a dove
I blame the bird, for it dared to interrupt.

now.,
Version two is musing me,
a little more of that terrestipede
Goes gah gah when done good deed
Gave leg to a dog who had but three
      Coalescent limbs in search of history
      Atop of another they're just barely free
      Weep for yourselves if you aren't a full degree    
So you say you crave a leaf? Well then go climb a tree.

Oh I know, the title is so.. blah. Mm..well perhaps if someone has any suggestions, I'll be open to taking them.

This took me so long due to my complete lack of focus, and yet I stayed on topic much better than I usually would.

must. sleep. now.

comments and critique welcomed. :nod:

you have no idea.. how crazy it is to read this with coal chamber playing in the background.
hah
so much imagery.

i really like this part:
to dig up, and not down.
To sink towards the sky,
to invert a frown


the poem read like a chain.. and when those lines came in.. the chain turned and crumpled.. and straightened back out again.. no i am not on acid.. or anything.. i didnt actually see that haha. thats just the feeling i got.. and i hope i explained it so it made sense.
haha.

anyway.

Retractable regression.. those two words have been written on my notebook for the past 2 weeks.. haha. so i think that is insane..
(great minds think a like) ^.^ no matter how far from eachother.. we still have those little ties to keep us together, inside and out. i am glad our thoughts are much alike here.
not just those two words..

the ending really tied everthing together. the last line.. is how i feel constantly.. about everyone out here. and i dispise it. >.<
people arent to bad, just well.. your last line explains it perfectly.. but pennsylvanians have thier flaws as well.


sorry for the long quote.. it just happened to click with me very well right now.

:hug:

Retractable regression, eh? SO WEIRD. we are definitely linked. But yes, i'm sure you understood what i meant by that last line. It seems we understand it very well considering our situations. But I'm sorry some of the folks out there aren't as chill and understanding as we thought they would be. Who knows. Maybe you just haven't met the right people (figures, it's like that EVERYWHERE) heh.

but i'm so happy to receive such a long comment from you. i definitely took notice of it, and it made me all excited and such.

:hug:

I love you. <3

well thank you.

i enjoyed your writing as well, you have a lot to say.. and you rarely get in depth with what you have to say. so it's nice to be able to be given your thoughts once in a while to pick apart. :)
