Topic: you're the papercut that's slid all the way down by Jason Wardellyou are addictive
shifting thoughts nightly
graphing points of view
perspective
labeled clearly along the wall
you are painful
damaging me nightly
shattering my senses
torture
exquisite and divine
you are irresistable
alluring minds nightly
eliminating all worlds
solitary
and surrounded
you are the papercut
allowed to slide nightly
reviving my senses
feelings

Posted by Don Coffman on 10/10/03 at 09:17 AM I like it much, Mr. O. Very much an effective job of catching that painful sting. So tiny and so unforgettable til it heals. |
Posted by Rachelle Howe on 10/10/03 at 01:30 PM there is so much dang power behind these lines. this is like a really horrible cold shower at five in the morning when you *MUST WAKE UP.* and it does. the piece, unlike the shower, is absolute. way to go, wiley! you're constantly uprooting me. |
