a quickened pulse gives no regard
to quiet solice: interred - barred

active, garish, running, rushing
quells the quiet act of hushing

onward pushed, implusive choices
fail to still the harried voices

panic now - the pulse beats faster
Work to see the peace hereafter

now a blur, no time for thought
still the pain of speed not caught

fleeting fancies - pulse indulges
now collapse amidst the buldges

now collapse the shell unable
to attain the great One's table

finally - as drive recedes
hear the wisdom silence breathes.

Wow. I'm no great judge of poetry, but I thought that was excellent. You really get the sense of near panic and then a wash of peace at the end.

I'm lousy at poetry, but I really enjoyed reading yours. It constantly made me feel as though I was taking a stilted breath, pausing, and then exhaling. BTW did you mean to spell "recedes" and "breathes" the way you did?

lol. About the worst part of my grasp of english involves spelling. All things concidered, two words isn't that bad. I'll go change them.

Thanks!

Very good indeed! Do you have any other works? I'd like to read them if you do.

It's very good indeed.

Thanks!

I have some other stuff I've written. I acutally lost about 5 years worth of poetry when my journal disappeared. The long and short of that is that my site with my poetry/songs has the really old stuff (sucky) and the really new stuff (not as sucky). If you want to read more, head to:

If you see something you think I should post, let me know. I may post it here for comments.
