A Green Moons Haze

Member since 2002 · Posted 11 Nov 2002 · 4 comments

Lying under a green moons haze, the view from my window seems insignificant. The lightning bugs play tag around the gorged budding tree. My thoughts drift away with the sympathetic summer wind. I am numb. The worries of the world seem meaningless at this point. I try to picture a faultless sunrise. The haze has gotten closer to my heart. My dreams run out my mouth then fall and hit the floor. Shattered into a thousand pieces my life seems to be a jigsaw puzzel. I am numb. The feeling of life has filled threw my fingertips and leaked out the sides. I have fallen to the cold floor trying to regain countenance. I am numb.

but jigsaw aren't jagged (shattered, whatever) even though they are confusing and in a thousand pieces. dammit man! (woman)! you are a tease. shape this up. the bit about the haze seeping closer to your heart is eerily brilliant, damn you. i demand a rewrite.

I agree its a ten but you might change threw to through. It'd make it so that someone didn't mentally trip over your words, unless that was what you were going for.
