All my mistakes have been exhausted

Just some craptacular poetry that I did last year in Creative Writing. You really can't get the idea since these were shape poems, and that doesn't really work well on lj. Enjoy.



Lost

I tried to feel
Think
Grow
Love
Go beyond the dark swirling depths of my decaying lifeless soul


But I failed


And now
I
Am
All



Alone







Sunrise

The sky stared at me
Inky blackness dotted by glittering grains of salt

I was an ant
As small as a droplet of water in the shifting seas of the universe
Pale azure light streaked across the horizon
The most minute hint of the brilliant globe that was soon to arrive

The seconds toiled away
Slow as the gradual grinding of water in a canyon

Soft shafts of light leaked over the earth's edge
Frosted shards of grass momentarily appearing as a field of diamond needles

The edge of the glowing orb slipped into the sky
One moment hiddent in Hades
The next
Apollo racing his chariot across the sky
