Ragged Edges

  Ragged edges    Ragged edgesTorn and tossed aboutNothing to hold on toWithout a clue to my mysteryKnowing yet not knowingWhat it is I need to doIn a  Godless worldI twist and turnRushing forward cursing
My  own humanity
AloneI dance  in some dark night
No end in sight for meTime to wakeAnd dream again

Joe

Have been reading your work and can see that there are a few without comment, they are good and the only thing I can see that will not let them have their comment is that they are short and just a little detached from a focus point. I will read them all and comment as I do. Your writing is good and the flow of words seems fine just needs that focal point and more body , Yours Ian.T

J.B. Longo-GeremiaThanks

J.B. Longo-Geremia Thanks Ian, My poetry is not for everyone, I think. It is Spartan and to the point, The focus point is the thread of a particular message that discovers itself slowly in the reading, Several read together forom a "mosaic" of this message. Thanks for readinig me. :) Joe
