Dying is not Living by Stephanie KentErasing your reflection
Smoothing away the defining lines
To make way for a mask
You are dying to fit 08/03/2003 Posted on 08/03/2003 Copyright © 2024 Stephanie Kent

Posted by Quentin S Clingerman on 08/05/03 at 02:18 PM Subtle in its conciseness, intriguing in message, a unique look at the cliche "dying to ...". |
Posted by Max Bouillet on 08/05/03 at 03:36 PM Complex issues for so few words. Very well crafted and a lot to think about. |
Posted by Vimal Rony on 08/06/03 at 03:44 AM U make one ponder with such few lines and that is a great talent. |
Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 08/07/03 at 04:49 PM How bout Living To Die as an alternate? Otherwise I like the poem. Sounds inspired by those who've given up on life and purposely live dangerously. As Jimi Hendrix sang in All Along The Watchtower: to some life is but a joke. |
