    Insectinside

    I fell off a leaf
    And descended like an elephant with a torn parachute,
    A sparrow with marrow wings,

    I was a statue suddenly lifted by a feather,

    In a chaotic pace, placed, into a cramp contorted space,
    I watched giants conversing,
    Mountains nursing and monoliths perching,

    Like larks foreboding our marches,
    Wish I could speak to the wind,
    With clipped wings,
    Beg for the sun to move over head again,

    The seeds will grow next feast,
    My leaf will carry another,
    But this world will still change,
    The same way it has.. forever,

    Whispers spoken, through a crickets legs,
    To describe the night can be safe, and not only for the dead

    I march
    Only accepting the pieces attached,
    Until the spider makes my suit,
    Or Venus traps me with a grin

    You should check out some of Artie's dark poetry. You have a similar style. Write on......

    It's a dream... I cannot find words great enough to describe what you have written. This is wonderful. I am proud to say that I saved it into my favorites. Great write. I am looking forward to reading more of your work.

    This is beautifully surreal, and, in its surreality, a bit hard to follow. I love the opening paragraph. And this line, "Whispers spoken, through a crickets legs" —— perfect!

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
