Spiraling decay that begins and never ends yesterday is today yet today feels worse tomorrow will hurt more I gaze into the mirror and I see my reflection and I see my reflection in the mirror behind my mirror form and I wonder if the me in the mirror envies me or if he prefers to exist intermittently and I wonder if the me in the mirror behind myself envies the me in the mirror as his existence is not only acknowledged when I think to think about him and I realize I am distracting myself from the spiral inside my heart beating erratically although the monitor says 89 BPM and I wonder why the spiral never ends and I realize that the spiral is self inflicted and I decide to cut it out and I prepare my genetic scalpel and I hesitate because it is scary and I make the incision and I pull the string within my heart and I pull and I pull and I pullad nauseam

Echoby Christina RossettiCome to me in the silence of the night; Come in the speaking silence of a dream;Come with soft rounded cheeks and eyes as brightAs sunlight on a stream; Come back in tears,O memory, hope, love of finished years.Oh dream how sweet, too sweet, too bitter sweet,Whose wakening should have been in Paradise,Where souls brimful of love abide and meet; Where thirsting longing eyesWatch the slow doorThat opening, letting in, lets out no more.Yet come to me in dreams, that I may liveMy very life again tho' cold in death:Come back to me in dreams, that I may givePulse for pulse, breath for breath:Speak low, lean low,As long ago, my love, how long ago.
This is a poem I wrote. Please give a critique.Empire for empire, war for war,Strong crushing weak is the law,As great men sit on golden throne,They want to see an empire ROME.Caesar shall return as a great man,Foretold by Spengler, see his plan,Total rule from sea to seaAnd he will rule but by decree.Disagree? To the camp.with you,You will be a slave, that's true,As empires conquer once again,And blood flows fresh over the plain,We worship Genghis, Hitler, Caesar,We need an empire that's even bigger,We need an empire that's number one,That holds the world like a stone,Men will march in total rhythm,As emperors expend much jismAt the political map, all one color,As they take the whole world over,Old gods return, sacrifices made,Jupiter smiles, as the way is paved,To IRON RULE, that will never end,And for the weakling, we do portendUnending violence, just for a thrill,YOU WILL NEVER STOP, OUR IRON WILL.

>>25316647A poem I wrote translated to English: "The Hedgeshot"In the shadow of brooding heat fierce,The grassblades stand limp and pale.The hedge in glowing, sweating pierceHas lost its deep and vivid veil.There stirs a twitch within the hedge’s breast,A rustling low beneath the floor.It pricks me sorely to go and questWhat whispers there within its coreIn the shadow of the shimmering, glimm’ring heat,From out the hedge there spurs a strain:A play of most bewitching, elfin wit,From the hedgebelly to mine ear againI peered with narrowed, eager slits,To see what moves within the leaves’ domain.I stared into the heat’s wild, mangled fitsWhat plays that hidden faery-gameSurely the troll teases the sparrows,Surely sylphs hoard treasures in secret nooks,Surely gnomes hide in the brown-leafed barrows,Surely fauns court faun-maids with roguish looks.Surely sprites are humming and buzzing there,Surely the dwarf-king lures me to be his heirThen angels stepped up to my side and spake:“Dwarf and troll, sylph and faun,All these quaint and pious hedge-sprites wakeYou may dare to grasp them if you’re brave and drawn.You may walk the hedge-path with God’s own grace,But know this one thing clear:If you go, you go all the way, and without a trace.”A shiver ran through me, full of prickling fright,That lazy, withered hedge now seemedA changeful, impish child of spiteIt struck me squarely in the heart, it gleamedRight on it struck my heart, my senses’ baneIts wicked jest has hit its mark,And drives me mad with love insaneThe rustling in the hedge doth wane,I startle upright in my chair, aghast.I must not wake what came againThe very fate the hedge on me hath castYet turning back is now forever banned,Mad-will hath seized the reins outright.In angel-song and fool’s delight I stand,To bask therein and swear to every faery’s riteFor evermore, and more ever, with all my might.Now there stands that hedge again,green as spring and right as rain
No wailing on the planeParent ethical(I'm sleeping)
SparagmosMouth full of blood and wineunder the bone-white moon,women dance and tear me aparthowling like loons. Under the ascending sunMy gore makes the flowers grow.Women feast on my fleshnext to deer and crow.
>>25317391What did you mean by this?
--bittersweet--A nodding ship that drifts awayOff from places so dull and greyWhere grief and sorrow go to die;leaving but a carefree sighNo strife or dread or toil for goldOf passing stories never toldGentle seas that rock fears to sleep;for wakeful minds alone to keepIntruding curtains wake my sightThe light betrays my wish for nightWhat lingers wears off with a yawnAnd fades away along with dawn
>>25317423>Sparagmos is an ancient Greek ritual term (from sparasso, meaning "to tear or rend") describing the ecstatic act of dismembering a living human or animal sacrifice. Associated closely with the worship of Dionysus, it symbolized the tearing apart of life to achieve a divine, transcendent rebirth.
Theatre sad. Drapes in winter.I'd show you but nothing's ready for a photograph.I have some already,photographs of photographs of the sea.They are precious, like me.

Hard waterDrowned dead, calcified carcass still standingMournful eyes layered on glass, silver, glass againKeeping me company while I evaporateDry tears form along the fragile surfaceCan't love her

>>25316647El armador aquel de casas rústicashabló desde la barca,ellos sobre la grava de la orilla,y él flotando en las aguas.Y la brisa del lago recogíade su boca parábolas,ojos que ven, oídos que oyen gozande bienaventuranza.Recién nacían por el aire clarolas semillas aladas, el sol las revestía con sus rayos,la brisa las cunaba.Hasta que al fin cayeron en un libro¡ay, tragedia del alma!ellos tumbados en la grava secay él flotando en las aguas.
>>25316647>Bonus: post a poem you wrote about your oneitis.The winter solstice of my loveLeft nothing to amendI stood without my heart that night"Why does it have to end?"Spring came to take my sullen moodSnow melted with my pleaYet in my chest was still a voidLike the hollow of a treeThen summer came and dried awayThe tears I used to weepMy heart now tarries in the treeForever yours to keep

>>25318014The weavers of these tedious threadsWould like to see their medium deadShould something raw and real ariseMust this be raped and ostracizedIn a life without my rhythm and rhymeWhat is there to hide behind?
Alexander Pope's Eloisa to Abelard is a great love poem. Too long to post in it's entirety, but here's an excerpt:>Then share thy pain, allow that sad relief;>Ah, more than share it! give me all thy grief.>Heav'n first taught letters for some wretch's aid,>Some banish'd lover, or some captive maid;>They live, they speak, they breathe what love inspires,>Warm from the soul, and faithful to its fires,>The virgin's wish without her fears impart,>Excuse the blush, and pour out all the heart,>Speed the soft intercourse from soul to soul,>And waft a sigh from Indus to the Pole.
