Okay I know there are a ton of writers on this board and I want you allll to share some of your wonderful work. Prose, poetry, reviews... whatever, just creative writing.
I guess I'll go first then, this is a poem I wrote a few days ago called "And The Wounds Shine Like Diamonds":
where people reek of near death,
smoke cigarettes and set off hand grenades
to the days of youthful adventure.
and to retreat to a comfort zone would be a safe bet
but it lasts as long as your candle to a burning match.
i often find myself in a state of denial for days
hoping everything would turn back.
but our clocks are manual, and turning them back would make
living lose it's flow.
we put our heads under water to obscure voices and their
expressionist tone.
i'd like to think my mind is so clean you could eat off of it
but days of endless TV advertisements and listening to people's phonecalls
have left my brain dry and seized.
dirty minded from even the most prestigious of their words,
it pushes me into a vegetable life,
like an ice cube,
sitting there melting away.
okay now don't leave me hanging and post some of your own writing
