spiderwebs swaying in the sun
cotton-candy clouds
shark bites breaking skin
sirens screaming, sounds swimming
through ears unwilling to hear.
crushed boulders rolling into canyons,
chests heaving with what could only be
broken-down dreams.
i want the words to pour from your veins,
i want you to write me something that's at the very core of your being,
painful, uplifting, sensual -- something aching with truth.
it can be whatever you want,
inspired by what's above or not;
i don't care about style
but no matter what,
it has to have a life of its own.
i want there to be imagery oozing out of its pores.
doesn't matter if its adult content.
i'd prefer it if you didn't go down the cutting/suicide route.
no rules, though.
give me something that will leave me breathless.

I have a perfect poem, but I just wrote it and posted it. So its not new, do you think that you can allow pre-written poems?
-
-
i just looked at your posted items, and only one said it was posted in august, and it was a reserve. how old is the poem you were talking about?
-
-
Its called Clouds Song. I thought it fit.
-
-
i think i'd prefer it if you wrote a new one, mostly because the poem you're talking about has been entered in about a million other contests. i'm sure you can write one that's just as fantastic.
