Framework

 

 

Somehow, it ended up that I was split.

Human instincts dissolved in gray sunshine,

caught in frigid, sporadic light brights.

Every word spoken was whip-lashed back

and beaten until give reason -

(if there was any reason at all).

 

His eyes, perhaps they saw mine.

Rib cage bones breaking, every sound

materialized in those green hues.

 

Underneath those soft lips, though,

was a microphone and a headset;

sketched like wild fire on pre-cut sheets

and fed through silver chrome machines.

 

Those eyes, multimillion framework,

seized to illuminate the broken shades

captured on the TV screen.

    What a fascinating read this was. Took me until half way through to even get an inkling. Really great writing. Congratulations on winning this contest.

    Im at a loss for words really, I could analyze and tell you what i liked and all, but I hate doing that, gives that whole "I know what I'm talking about" feel to the comment, It's easier to just applaud you for being well-spoken and intelligent
