Oh good, it's working, the thread is coming back to life!
Radies, that was such a touching poem --- the strength of your emotions comes through so clearly...
Here's another of mine, in hopes that I'll get to read more of yours (and everyone else's). This one is more along the lines of Pandora.
pause
the milky grey fog of solitude
absorbs me
my cries dead as they leave my throat
even the pungent scent of my desperation
gets eaten
devoured by the blank:
the nothinglife
of waiting
alone
the black hole the blue depths
the indigo vacancy
of not-yet
clamp murderous teeth
around
the vibrancy of now
all sensation
on hold
waiting for maybe
