Replying to a comment on:
Castaway (Other) by andrewjthomas
The flow
of the sea
is lost to men
who are caught inside
her storm. You sway with fear,
still loathing nature's regret.
The tempest surges, boat capsized
in water's search for nooks and crannies.
To blame her -- foolish, futile. Don't forget,
precipitation falls on all who said
the rain would never come. Certainties,
like her, are no more truth than lies.
What does denial beget?
You'll drown while currents tear
you asunder. Why
this urge to swim
against peace?
She knows.
========================
note: this is an oscillitet, a form of my own creation
rhyme and meter grow inward to a culminating heroic couplet
also serving as the central thought for the piece
feel free to try your hand at it and please let me know if you do
