All Lights Go Out

Tasting fate ruined by being late,      running around blocks        hurrying to reach         an invisible gate. Doe like eyes cry upwards      to limits of what    can be seen in the sky. Wonders if this shadow  is a sign from above?        Then why. Bounded books of photos taken   save memories in     pictures of chosen days. Glossy prints of memories  will never fade away. We will fade to dust, to death, to deep sleep in time we can’t expect, a mark of fate placed on our soul a moment no one can control. A babe is born, a babe must leave; grim reapers cause will set us free toss us out like grains of seed. Ending from the beginning of times makes me wonder who will look for our signs.

Deni, I think the only one that truly cares to look for signs would be ourselves. We really are most interested and needful of information pertainin to us.We are together and yet soooo alone. Doe like eyes cry upwards , I dislike because it feels like weakness. And we are a lot stronger than we think. I'd like eyes of concern or insight....better. I also think we live fate daily. How did we come to be where we are in time. fate, we follow the road of fate. We control very little. All in all, thought provoking writing. Dellena

So much better than, Fairy Possible. Instead of me, I want you to tell me why. The last line is full of deeper implication that might have been missed entirely if you had tried to better contrive it to form and structure. I want you to see the tightrope poet's walk between the subtle and the contrived everytime they pick up the pen. JCH
