SOLICITUDE

Moments attacked by tragedy.....

Fractured,

Exposing our weaknesses,
Sowed among the pathways of dread
Within the ground of detachment.

These endlessly shifting feelings
Tripping through the passages of our minds,
On mental pathways
framed with visions of manic holograms.......

In an accelerated mind.

Surging with the thoughts
that reality enflames,
Becoming trapped within indecisiveness,
Lost within an uncontrollable spiral.....

As these corridors are consumed,
By this internal strain.

Amazing!!!! I love this one, Misty! Especially the beginning, "moments attacked by tragedy..." thats deep girl!!!! Gotta be my favorite line, just catches the imagination right away. It's kinda trippy, all the internal places it takes your reader in such a short time (or maybe it's just trippy cuz im still wired on caffiene...LOL) hehehehe Awesome Awesome write Misty! Peace and Love Katie

accelerated mind

you really put the pedal to the metal in this one. kinda like speeding down the highway with the scenery zipping past at a mind boggling rate. had to go back and read again, just to make sure that we were on the same stretch of road. had a vision of a mind as a racecar on an unfamiliar stretch, taking the corners at the edge of losing control. motorcycling is sometimes like that, when i get caught up in the moment.[probably why i have accidents]. keep on keeping on. gee
