Poetry / In Lieu of Love
Version 1
12 Reviews   32 Comments
I have been dead for the past three days and sixteen hours No red blood cells or plasma pulsed through my veins cage This salty cerebellum faded through blue and green distress Screaming and inching its way to black madness demise Suddenly I awakened to musical sounds of siren wail A phenomenal jolt of energy and light tumbled through I have been alive for exactly 89 minutes as blue blood toils Throughout the fields clouded by hazy misunderstanding Bargaining for peaceful slumber in the hammo...

Your silence is a silver blade that (shears) Into the deepest, painful thoughts (and tears) Only because you really don't have a rhyme in us and cuts. Through screams and lies and lullabies, soft sighs...Reconsider "soft sighs", it doesn't fit well. And time belies another side of life....again there is a problem with the rhyme of sighs and life not rhyming. Rhymes for sighs or lullabies from http://www.rhymezone.com/: ais, ayes, bies, bise, buy's, buys, chi's, cries, crise, di's, dies, dise,...
Poetry / Life Goes On
You have a very realistic point of view regarding life as noted in the opening line: Moments became years... And now I don't know you...may be said a better way as it now sounds like a letter, speaking directly to the person. That concept follows through the next lines then you move in another direction.

Poetry / My CountryMen
I dreamed of my countrymen...Consider disguising the countrymen at first because as the piece moves forward, you are not talking about the "countrymen" any longer past the fourth line, you are talking globally about the world and its people. I am unsure if you realize that it comes across as a much bigger and more significant vision. On a tiny blue planet, under white clouds, rotating around a yellow sun...perfect mastery of a literary painter. I see the use of color in writing as perfection....
Poetry / Beneath the Veil
Locked
Poetry / The Rain
Think about the use of the word originally and the word screamin-too different in intelligence. The use of screamin instead of screaming sounds like urban slang or lyrics, and even lazy writing. The piece will gain much more merit by being written correctly, or keep your pattern of language use the same. I can tell by the subject, you are highly intelligent-use it. Also, rhyme or don't. That also throws a wrench in an otherwise remarkable writing. Most of my peer’s shed tears while I shed blo...
