the light
« on: May 07, 2007, 03:44:43 am »
this doesn't feel like it fits well in the stories forum. been bouncing around by head for a while. but from a mind that thinks in hypertext and metaphor...

i wandered among the worlds.
i came into the light.
i walked among those who wandered the world.

i saw the vision, and was blinded by its light.
i stood transfixed by the light.
i stood afraid to leave the light.

i saw those move unknowing of the vision
i saw them leashed by the vision
i saw them wail at their unseen leash

i saw those who moved blinded by the vision.
i saw them leashed by the vision.
i saw them gnash their teeth at the leash.

i saw others who moved.
i saw them sighted with the vision in their eyes.
i saw them walk with the leash in their hands.

i sat and watch those around me.
i felt the vision in my mind.
i saw the light in my eyes.

i knew my path.
may laanx frighten the shadow from my path.
hardly because the shadow built the lexx.
the shadow will frighten laanx from my path.

I love it but really think it should be in the story writing section. The idea behind it is awesome what ever it may be, I get an image of how differnt people handle things that happen in life.
Hide where they expect you to... Its what they least expect.

In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king. Imagine who has both.

the dream
« Reply #7 on: July 31, 2007, 03:29:05 am »
every night i see the dream.
all that it can be.
 all that it should be.
 all that it will be.

the horrors of such a dream.
 the pleasures of such a dream.

i feel the dream.
i felt the dream.
the dream nestles.
the dream entwines.

the dream becomes me as much as i am it.

may laanx frighten the shadow from my path.
hardly because the shadow built the lexx.
the shadow will frighten laanx from my path.
