I SHALL NOT

Member since 2002 · Posted 16 Aug 2002 · 7 comments

I shall not listen for, i shall not speak of, the name that i do seek. And if silence backfires, my ways may turn, my heart shall then be left to burn, amoungst the flames beneath the fire, my silence waits, for the command of my desire.

You have much potential. Keep writing, refine your technique, and don't let people as muddled as Horus stand in your way.

Do flames really burn beneath a fire or are the fire itself? Shouldn't this poem be called: I have a pimple, what to do, if I pop it, it will spew. All over the walls, all over the floor, and if it is a big one I just might hit the door. And don't listen to blake. His poetry also has acne.

If silence bacffires? We can only hope it does right in your face blinding you just long enough to send you drifting across the median and into on coming traffic.
