If I posted it, I've made it, yes. With the exception of my Portal stamps, all words you read from me are 100% my own.

I like this one the most of the lot I've read so far - both presentation and message wise. Simple, but effective poem.

oh WOW, this is amazing. the spacing and the leading you did with lines makes it even more powerful. love how the top is chaotic and then it just grinds to a halt and delivers its final message.

SpinningStarshine In reply to Satah [2011-01-30 16:42:48 +0000 UTC]

Super late reply. Blargh. Sorry.

Thank you for commenting on the presentation. Of course I had little control over where the lines were that I chose, but I'm pleased to hear that what I made of it enhances the relationships of the phrases - and the reading as a whole- as strongly as I hoped.

the shape reminds me of a tree. Or the oddest of the lampposts

SpinningStarshine In reply to Az-The-Dragon [2010-08-09 20:35:06 +0000 UTC]

Perhaps considering the nature of the poem as a whole, it would be more appropriate to see at as something flowing/falling down; but that's just my own idea. Honestly, the shape of this one is less important than christopher and the crowd's, but it's always good to factor in everything about a shape poem.

Az-The-Dragon In reply to SpinningStarshine [2010-08-09 20:37:55 +0000 UTC]

Hmmm... blood trickling down. I can see that too, but the first thing I saw in this (before I got to read it) was really a tree or a lamppost^^'

SpinningStarshine In reply to Az-The-Dragon [2010-08-09 20:41:22 +0000 UTC]

A tree is an interesting interpretation. I like that one. "blood trickling down" is the obvious/cliche choice, but I'm not here to refute or confirm it. I admit I didn't exactly intend to make my coloring...gothic, but it decided to end up that way and I don't perceive it as harming the poem.

SpinningStarshine In reply to Az-The-Dragon [2010-08-10 02:06:20 +0000 UTC]

Yeah. = ) A vein, fire and smoke, and the stem of a glass with the top shattering into fragments are all images I see.

SpinningStarshine In reply to larroney [2010-08-09 19:34:42 +0000 UTC]

Yes. As I scanned the page, the repetition of violent actions and variants of the word death (died, dead) demanded my attention immediately.
