poetry hurts; thats why I need it.

Folder: 
PHILOSOPHICAL SS

pluck out my heart and leave it on the road

I forgot what it was to feel again.

I scribble directions to healing

only i cant read my own writing

tip me upsidedown and tear me inside out

Ive left it all on the pages for your insight.

kill me softly

kill me violently

Ive died a thousand deaths

none as painful

than the first verse

and the hole torn from the fabric of my universe

still I try to feel something
anything except numb.

Thoroughly read & liked Mr/Ms SS's presentation

Thoroughly read & liked Mr/Ms SS's presentation

Some poets vent their anger and  frustration

Plenty of different solid angles to view all around

You must end up with a sparkling piece -profound                                  (Reminds me of the poet Dylan Thomas' "Do not go gentle into that Good Night")

Feel the rhyme

As the rhythm coaxes your soul
Let the words freely flow
As the story in poetry grows


Kick your feet to the beat
And let the universe bend to your whims
Feel the fires and the heat
As the music burns within


Feel the words as they dance around your mind
Turn that killing into living as you let the rhyme inside
Scrawl your words on empty pages
Let the ink stain every line
Build the poetry in stages
And let it make you feel alive


Give your favorite poets Sylkie rhymes
Let us feel the presence of your lines
We are all here with you, your poemies in life
And no matter what you know, we will always have the night :)
