PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Makes me think of a place or situation that amounts to the evil twin of “Big Rock Candy Mountain.”

It’s about Heartburn or Heartbreak; you decide.

The eternal battle of good vs. evil....with a twist. I've always thought that when we die we have to fight for where our immortal souls go. This piece is one said battle.

Since my little brother's murder, death has heavily invaded my thoughts. This piece is my way of sorting it out....somewhat.

Writing regular poetry no longer works for me. I've chosen to tell stories with my poetry and being a die-hard Stephen King fan, I thought of my daughter and this piece was born.

comments?

This effort came to me on an extremely scorching day last summer, basically to say that even without any AC, it STILL wouldn't stop a sex scenario.

This is the most serious effort I've ever written. Over the span of a week, I saw 9 different news reports of someone who committed suicide. I asked myself what could possibly be so bad that a person would want to take their own life? The creative side of me then adapted the mindstate of wanting to die for whatever reasons that would be deemed unbearable. In spite of the delicacy of the subject matter, I'm very proud of this particular piece and it stands as one of my personal favorites.
