Description
i saw the darker side
behind the walls of an old
city
crimes were comitted
we were vaguely impressed
and weak
watered down in ignorance
with sedated words
little truth was spoken
and even then we lost
their value
out of sight
out of mind
out of control
we started our journey
the horizon
an eyelash away
well
this might not be too clear
for those of you frozen
in time
those who climb
a mountain
in order
to descend again
the valley is where we belong
scheming, gossiping
preparing
little crimes
against little people
in a disinterested world

i dig the poem. im trying to search for it, see where it comes from, but cannot find it. did you write this? very cool
Splendid!
Mountains, valleys are mirror images of each other in profile. I am a product of valleys among mountains and know that each of these self-contained troughs eventually reach down to the clear air and horizons of the sea. We have the choice to take this route or clamber aimlessly over each false ridge of hope. This was a powerful and seminal piece of poetry. Thank you. Mike
In return to your inspiring praise on my own. I viewed your gallery to be awestruck by your incredible art talents. And even more so by your literary talents! Well done. This one especially is a favorite. Erik
