    Re: Today's poet

    Good finds from Mountain Goatess and Derby Tup there.

    Morning all, I feel a spot of sledging coming on today.

    Torn.

    Quiet intensity stirring deep,
    Feelings rise mental turmoil,
    Pace the room cannot sleep,
    Muscles tensed up like a coil.

    Too long mind torn,
    Find peace go run,
    Snow in face reborn,
    Think clear now done.

    Days hard Nights are too,
    Mind and body split apart,
    Tell me please what to do,
    Always listen to your heart.

    I really really like this Tri...being torn is one of the most uncomfortable psychological states I think and one which I can relate to...

    On a different note...

    I have just been given a book by Stephen Fry "The Ode Less Traveled"; Unlocking the Poet Within so plan on educating myself this evening!...lovely

    I was going to buy that myself and didn't at the last moment. Drop a post on thread to tell us all if any good.

    Always be drunk
    That's it
    The great imperative
    In order not to feel
    Time's horrid fardel
    Bruise your shoulders grinding you into the earth
    Get drunk and stay that way.
    On what?
    On wine, poetry, virtue, whatever
    But get drunk
    And if you sometimes happen to wake up
    On the porches of a palace,
    In the green grass of a ditch
    In the dismal loneliness of your own room
    Your drunkenness gone or disappearing,
    Ask the wind,
    the wave
    the star
    the bird,
    the clock,
    Ask everything that flees,
    everything that groans or rolls or sings,
    everything that speaks,
    Ask what time it is;
    and the wind, the wave, the star the bird, the clock
    will answer you
    "Time to get drunk
    Don't be martyred slaves of Time,
    Get drunk
    Stay drunk
    On wine, virtue, poetry, whatever!"

    Charles Baudelaire

    Re: Today's poet

    Someone find the real me.

    I look inside and long to see,
    A thing of beauty looking back at me,
    Instead a monster do i find,
    That others see and leave behind.

    Alone, empty and confused,
    Darkness drifting lost my muse,
    A singularity of pain splitting my head,
    Motionless silent i wish i was dead.

    I don't know if i'm in here any more,
    Mind and body wrecked to the core,
    It might take someone who is me,
    To go in and search bring me back to reality.
