Corrosion








I am

but

pitiful pebbles
at Pain's shore

where
the gravity of Grief
grinds me into grains.



So,


Today,

I am sand,

simmering
silently
in the smoldering sun,

seeking
one ray of light
to hang myself with.


Detached,
incoherent,


-wasted and weary-

I wallow in
wicked waves,

slave
to the shore, the wind,
and Oblivion's ocean.


Refusing
to dissolve
in Life's bitter waters,


grain

by

grain,

to the bottom,

I fall

flirting
with Filth.


And there,
I linger,

and

savor the Silence.

    Very interesting...alliterations? is that the right word? It gave me the impression of very steady, loud music. Absolutely loved it!

    Interesting as well

    This is more powerful and more illuminating with a style that not so many can undertake...
    You remind me of someone who is good with it too,
    the one-word two-words -alliteration technique..
    It's my own definition, I take it you don't have a name for it, anyway...

    This was another favourable read from you, I am drawn to your writings.

    The way you use your page is quite witty I must say..
    the words not just read out, they seem to f l y...to b r e a t h..

    Good job,
    Be well,
    RD.

    awesome

    this is outstanding and gives me a visual as if I'm that very grain of sand...Alas, one might think that a small grain of sand is insigificent, but without that grain of sand, the universe itself is incomplete, and we aren't a part of life as we know it...we are all a part of something and thus not alone...this write is outstanding...smile..David
