I implore the powers that be
curses heard
thunder on the winds
when will you write again?
it will come when it does
fear clutches my soul
I've been locked out before
the powers that be turn the key
shut me out of what I love
punished for my abuse
words pissed from my pen
causes a great void
ravages the minds that read
it's my nature
the demons I wrestle with
and yet
I'm hurting
with a heart that aches
the great circle of life
is getting smaller for me
the things that cause passion
is a small flame flickering in the wind
a minute spark I hold close to my chest
I find myself locked out
the reading of books
easing into a great movie
painting
I'm left with a small portal
a tiny window to peer from
POETRY
I implore the powers that be
don't take this last thing from me

Painful to read, lovely Crim
I know demons and I also know that nothing I write will send them away...
Sending lots of hugs instead!
Love, Duende

The Gods never take back a gift once given, Brenda. It is yours for life. Your thoughts, however, can make you believe differently. Belief is so much more important than Faith because one must Believe in something to have the Faith in it. So this holiday season I wish for you Belief of the deepest Spirit which no thought could contaminate.

It's heartbreaking that so much was taken away from you Crim. I suspect your joy in reading and other pursuits will return given time. I thank the powers that be you still have poetry as an outlet, for your own expression and our admiration. Your work is brave and a thrill to read. This is no exception. I implore those powers that you keep writing and remain one of the best poets found deep underground.

superb write - I have been pondering the loss of poetry or the ability to write it - very scary :-(
"POETRY
I implore the powers that be
don't take this last thing from me"
I love this, it feels like a prayer, I'd use it as such but I am not sure who to send it to - Inspirational stuff :-)

I second that!! Powers that be, don't take Crim's poetry from me!! I dunno what I'd do!!
Seriously, though, I understand...I think. For me, it takes a specific atmosphere, mindset, events, etc
Definitely, wish I had the tools/time, to put more ink down!

It is a real dilemma. I walk this road now. My demons choke the life from my words and I am helpless to object. I feel you.
