hate-crime.

i'm digging myself into something deep.
between a rich grave and a beautiful philosophy.
a book between my mattress has a decadence
man-made mouth couldn't ever achieve.
every word coats my lungs and fills my bath.
it tells me to, "be not afraid."
the only earthly entity i can trust is buried in my body.

    huh... I have to be curious as to what book you're reading. I've probably read it, lol. Cool poem.
    "between a rich grave and a beautiful philosophy."
    I like that.

    Unique ...

    seems to be the best way to describe this. It's thought-provoking without overwhelming the reader and works well on its own merits.

    Keep up the good work.

    We all have dreams and we scrap the barrel of our being to create some of them. We had I our secrets in the most obvious places, mostly because we want to keep looking at them. We pretend that we are not afraid but better than everybody else. Yet in the end what do we have left. The husk of a soul, the wind whistling through an empty building and a feeling that "just" maybe "if"
    Love Tom B.

    Not at all what I'd expected when I saw the title, but that does not mean it's any less the rewarding for having taken a glance. I enjoyed it for its difference, and for the thoughts it leaves me with... thank you.

    Very sad. I'm not quite sure what it's about, but your title gives me some ideas. It's kind of open ended and can be a lot of things. I'm studying a hate crime for a class and it's heartbreaking stuff.

    Anyway, even thought I didn't quite understand, I liked it very much.
