Why Stay? (Free verse) by LuckyJoe
Entombed in an icy grave, Through the frozen crystal, Looking up into the void sky, Breath shallow wishing to die, Encased emotion due to devotion, Worry no longer of her pain, It is her who drives you insane.

Up the ladder: Voltaic Buss
Down the ladder: Restraint

so I remain stuck here with you is better than "so stuck here with you I remain." even if it doesn't make a rhyme.

But don't listen to me, I'm a hack..or less.

Interesting. Are the numerous grammatical errors an attempt at capturing the mindset of an inarticulate character, or can you just not type properly. I like the rousing ending.

ok, that mouse/house rhyme was one bad way to end this.

Indeed it was. Not sure what I was thinking. I'm reading it all over now... and see many reasons not to end it like that. Why is there still a door jam to go under if the walls have fallen down. If someone is caged, chained, in a prison of some sort why is there a door jam near them.
Thanks for pointing that out..made me look at it and see what was wrong.
