I See You (Part III) by Uriel Tovarthe day that i lived
the sun was blue
and swallowed up the sea.
it belched the stars
out
like hot phlegm
coughed by an old man with bronchitis.
i sang that day
a song by elliott, "I Didn't
Understand."
i didn't either but
i knew i wouldn't.
the day that i decided to live,
the world crumbled
i stood on what remained.

Posted by Kyle Anne Kish on 07/09/05 at 12:52 PM A trilogy which remains very haunting indeed, Uriel. However, I like how you tied everything up nicely in this piece. I loved much of your phrasing and the sad pictures which my mind drew were complimentary of your words. I have never written a continutation piece before, but you have spurred my thoughts in such a direction. |
