but I do have feetNote: to fully understand this poem you need a little background knowledge of Greek Mythology. Provided, in the description, is a very brief summary of the myth that inspired this poem. Thank you.

clawing gut,
the Beasts force freedom.
burning throat and searing nose;
they escape into reality.
the strive of uniqueness
a vain endeavor.
a breath on a cold day

memories. (or dust?)

touched by Dolos
(only seeking amusement),
the mind fades
as nightmares long forgotten
horror remaining constant.
(I can not see)
history bound repeat;
time claims another head.
the same mistake: a different face

She no longer knows.a swirling shadow claims her pail allure.
Her face a memory that I once prized
buried in ghouls born by an evil pure
that through her, render true desires disguised.

the shadows I endeavor to, just, graze
in my hand shades dissolve, and leave a fear
and broiled skin. Tempests breed upon the haze,
that strikes and smolders those that stray a-near

perhaps a brightened blaze would clear the shade,
or mayhap I could cloak the light, and stare
as specters fade away - absolving maid
Of broken soul, its hatred through despair.

Her burdened surface I attempt and trudge,
Her spirit I only can try and judge.She no longer knows. by ~PeircingArrow

PensPoet's pens are scalpels
that gently part skin
to allow knowledge of
reality and its mistresses'
to seep into the blood and
find rest in the heart.

When by chance I glance
upon faded lines inscribed
in my body, I remember,
as if it were my Own.

Well,
that must mean
my pen is a dull axe,
which cleaves my side
and cracks my bones
to leak foreign letters
upon an empty page.

I read.
Nothing I ever wanted.
I crumple my flesh
to start over again.Pens by ~PeircingArrow

twisted thoughtstwisted thoughts of below
the night signals I am here
Burn me now, and watch me glow.

I am the energy that can not flow
bound to serve who can not hear
twisted thoughts of below

to the music soft and slow
mute to whispers of the ear
Burn me now, and watch me glow.

cut to pieces and torso
Nothing lives that does not fear
twisted thoughts of below

an affinity for blackened snow
I must melt to become clear
burn me now, and watch me glow.

for what I soon must know
I am forced to be the seer
twisted thoughts of below
Burn me now, and watch me glow.twisted thoughts by ~PeircingArrow

Progressionshe fell to the earth in a stream of shrapnel
and stardust in holy proportions; born
of silence and unfulfillment, tumulting
through that narrow area between
expectations and reality where
the pink glaze marred her romantic,

(blurry: a photograph held by careless hands;
a memory outdated and forgotten
and beautiful, once, before
the future fell in pace)

she landed with a deafening crack--
ribcage split and spilling secrets,
gasping for air beneath the surface of a pond
so stagnant that even the lilies withered away:
bubbles rose slowly (she began the process
of forgetting to breathe)

and she was not made for
our atmosphere; the air poProgression by ~intricately-ordinary

Eagle GirlEagle Girl:

She soars above clouds,
Beloved, wild, unrestrained.
Ended by envy.

starry eyes implodeshe cannot recall all
the things she's
swallowed:
pretty pills, rancid
razor blades and
wasted words coat
her sorry throat

she can't count her
fingers, like she can't
count the days again--
it's zero to zero, in it
to spin it:
time is measured in
lengths of abandonment.

she comes home empty-
handed; defeated,
depleted, repeated:
"I gave up again
I gave up I gave it
away I gave up"
repeated like some
makeshift lullaby

and once more she
apologizes to a
broken window,
shattered, scattered,
just hoping to
know somewhere
better to go

and when she walks,
she holds hands
with the yellowed
skeleton of a
forgostarry eyes implode by ~intricately-ordinary

Vacation

Well, I have now been a deviant here for just over two weeks. Over that time I have had a lot of fun writing, and think that I have improved. I also learned how to write in meter

. I just want to thank everyone who took the time to read, comment and/or give feedback on any of my writing. It really means a lot to me and encourages me to continue writing. I also want to personally thank a few that have, at one point or another, inspired me and have made my time on deviant art supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (in lack of a ~~better~~ real word).

I am going away on vacation, and will be gone for two weeks. I will not have a stable internet connection and little time to write. I might be able to pop by once or twice, but no promises. Have a very happy new year and I look forward to seeing you all again when I get back!
