Wyvern Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Imagine they imagine you so when you don't exist you can picture yourself in their eyes. Think they think of you, when they never speak or touch, so the broken words let you down gently. Pretend you still feel at home. But wish you didn't always invest, turning their absence unimaginable.
Regel Posted January 29, 2006 Report Posted January 29, 2006 Thought provoking to say the least. All of these action words that can only take place in your head. Imagine, think, and pretend are all the things that truely seperate us from all other animals. Lately everything I read has me thinking about my own mortality. So occasionally I imagine what it will be like when I don't exist. I think about the people I will leave behind and pretend the I would have any idea about what that would be like. Nice poem Wyvern.
Appy Posted February 2, 2006 Report Posted February 2, 2006 Intriguing poem Wyvern, not for the least because it's in a format that I could've chosen myself. You have me quite confused about the last stanza though, and I will have to come back to that many times to actually understand it. But, like Regel said, the first words, Image, think and pretend open up a big potential, and I think you used it well. I would be curious what made you write this, and why you went with this style.. it's so unlike you, which is quite refreshing I must admit, but still makes me think. Thanks for posting.
