*snicker* two-fiddy, two-fiddy.

moments of clarity through a general incomprehensibility.

and notice that it was written two days before 9/11. Coincidence, sure. But I usually don't write poems about my premonitions. =P

This is like an "aftershock" of Burning Night, right? I think the funny thing is that woodsmoke is such a comforting smell to most people.

Very like. I was trying to keep up on a "100 poems in 100 days" LiveJournal. It'd been 5 or 6 days since I visited last... and I was a little frustrated. *laughter*

Sounds like a creative writing class I once attended. Ten haiku a session for nine weeks. Ugh!

guess you have to be here to understand the power of the rain. very cool.

powerful. so many strive for this literary bent and fail. You do it as naturally as breathing.
Re: Cour by Cha no Onna 9-May-02/7:16 PM
It's not because you no longer care, but because you no longer _fear_ . =)

mmm... off beat. In a left field kind of way. Made me stop for a second.
Re: pull by skaskowski 16-May-02/5:53 PM
very evocative.
Re: Assassin's Song by Tekara 19-May-02/10:29 PM
Hmm.. I wonder if I know this person, too?
Re: Earthquake by ifni 24-Jun-02/6:11 PM
The poem is about stopping to think; a difficult word is intended to enhance that effect. =)

It's about my job - I transcribe for a Neurology clinic; so his words are always describing the patients' pains.

the image of the candle is supposed to invoke the paradox of light against the darkness (relief of his pain) versus the traditional end of a moth and a candle - destruction. Relieving his pain will destroy him. yah?
Re: My Life as a Book by molly 10-Aug-02/9:28 PM
clear imagery, good encapsulation of the moment. =)
Re: To You by Cha no Onna 11-Sep-02/11:48 PM
I rather liked stanza 4. But then I guess I'm into odd line breaks.
Re: Raining in Dream by memorybabe 17-Sep-02/8:46 AM
There's a lot of detrius in the beginning of this; meaningless phrases. Perhaps your intended effect; but it shrouds the meaning you're heading for in the second half.
Re: A Man Of The World by vulcan 17-Sep-02/8:48 AM
I wonder how many stories about green fairies this poem has engendered.
Re: Spellbound by Limness 17-Sep-02/8:49 AM
Not only a beautiful sentiment, but flawlessly executed as well.
Re: Remember-me (an ode to those dropped off at the clinic) by Bachus 17-Sep-02/8:52 AM
One can admire the work without admiring the sentiment. A worthy lesson, at least.
