Dancing on Glass

Member since 2003 · Posted 13 Oct 2003 · 13 comments

Red droplets soaked into the floor Of a factory swept clean Angry words of a lost tongue Written to be read by a dancer's eyes Circles and more if you can connect the dots Memories hidden in a scarlet hue The best secrets are hidden in plain view

Still not back but I had a strong urge to write something to be thought about.

The ending is fairly awesome.

I don't like that [the droplets] soaked into the floor; either I think of a cement floor in a factory, or via the title, a glass floor.

some good lines, but the images seem to come out of nowhere, difficult to get a handle on

The images don't seem to be connected very well, but I liked the ending.

your imagery is pretty but vague and empty. specify.
excise the banal phraseology: "connect the dots," "secrets... hidden in plain view." overall, though, with potential.

If poemranker is anything to go by, it doesn't.

Depends on whom is getting ready, and what they are preparing for.

A bit of punctuation would have done no harm. But it's OK I suppose. Noy exactly profound that last line, is it?
