Tinker Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Through the Mist The gray dawn yawns without the sun in sight, the autumn sky shifts with a misty cobweb of fog. Through the wet film the tree’s green takes on a dusty shade without reflection, just a tinge of its former self dares intrude. A clammy chill lies on my skin spreading cold up to the base of my neck, like a screech too shrill. Mornings like these I want to crawl back to my cocoon, that warm spot buried deep beneath our downy quilt and dream of you beside me on a summer afternoon. --- Judi Van Gorder Quote ~~ © ~~ Poems by Judi Van Gorder ~~ For permission to use this work you can write to Tinker1111@icloud.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abstrect-christ Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 very nice tink, the image of the moment was presented vividly and clear. Quote Pinhead "Unbearable, isn't it? The suffering of strangers, the agony of friends. There is a secret song at the center of the world, Joey, and its sound is like razors through flesh." Joey "I don't believe you." Pinhead "Oh come, you can hear its faint echo right now. I'm here to turn up the volume. To press the stinking face of humanity into the dark blood of its own secret heart." "There's a starving beast inside my chestplaying with me until he's boredThen, slowly burying his tusks in my fleshcrawling his way out he rips open old woundsWhen I reach for the knife placed on the bedside tableits blade reflects my determined faceto plant it in my chestand carve a hole so deep it snaps my veinsHollow me out, I want to feel empty"-- "Being Able To Feel Nothing" by Oathbreakerhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aBPy3xNwwL8 "Sky turns to a deeper grey the sun fades by the moon hell's come from the distant hills tortures dreams of the doomed and they pray, yet they prey and they pray, still they prey"-- "Still They Prey" by Coughhttps://soundcloud.com/relapserecords/sets/cough-still-they-pray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 It's true...no matter how demanding your daily schedule may be, the onset of such weather will make one feel quite uncomfortable. The cocoon you just left, will look even more inviting. yarnSpinner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
