Carpe Diem Ad Muertum
Sieze the day, to the death. There is no potential that shall be passed by, there is no piece of glory to fall by the wayside, there is no soul to left unsaved by the brilliance of language. As writers, we are gods.
Ich bin Der Doppelgänger des Nimmermehr
Bitte, bittet dich mir. Ich müß auf Deutsch schreiben, weil ich nicht so viel Deutsch diese Sommer bespracht habe. Es tut mir Leid. Dieser Gedicht habe ich geschriebt, weil ich Müde bin.

Compel me. You can't cause an
effect. I am the dying breed,
Who skulks unknown to
abandon the small nothings

Our center is fear, and
two triangular points
Has it faded as it marches
softly onward, leveling

We live branded, in
invisible flesh except this:
In case one sees it, who
they can see is different

Great and flat, coded, Zodiacal
followers watching for it,
Might it or more not come in
our indifferent lifetimes to live

After we've done all
this, the dust of erasure
When has crumbled through
the cracks is all remaining

Twisted questions above
us, bearded lady beneath us
Who knows why
we have come so far

Completion, elusive and
fading, sits by, empty and
Soulless, speaking rhymes can they
not understand, can we

Wir sind die Doppelgängerin des Nimmermehr und Immer. We are the shadows of nevermore and always. Wir sind der Kindergarten von gefroren Freiheit. We are the children's garden of frozen freedom. Wir sind Alles, das keine Männer sehen können! We are everything that no man can see!


Yay, emo stuff. You can never tell if it's going to be any good. emo xd



I've found in my years here on Earth that a spine is requisite if one is to stand for anything, especially on one's own two feet.

From my philosophy class: "I don't know if you've accurately captured the subjectivity of trolls..."[/size:b70742df3a][/color:b70742df3a]

The meaning behind this, I must admit, is nothing short of esoteric. However, I like it. Poems like these all tend to have that enchanting effect upon the reader when written right...it kind of puts them in a trance, whereupon they read the words but don't understand it, seeing images in their mind without knowing why. It leaves imporessions in ways other, simpler poems don't. Just be careful not to be too complex and surreptitious, because then the trance becomes broken as the result of the reader concentrating too hard to try and make sense of the words. That's all 3nodding .
