Amorphous Posted February 9, 2004 Share Posted February 9, 2004 [color=crimson][size=1]Somehow I posted this in the wrong forum. But we all make mistakes sometimes right we are only human. So anyways here is the poem. The Doors Chattered Upon The Wind Three Rightful places 'neath the earth rack up the winds and screech of dirge Lunging against the bark of that bare grown trees Delicate up in the sky where incognito weeps. And I feel the grapes upon the tattered vineyard Broken like the clattering graveyard gates Light breaks upon that subtle courtyard Knowing the contemplation of as skewed hate And those broken doors in the field rattle Those doors that chatter upon the wind Feeling the knotting in your grave side cradle And realizing the plight of hell's reign within So speaketh the forest you doth here Lying to you in the swayest form of seer Where the bones lie on the wayward An ebon dart of darkness pace it's slight of card These all lie before you as the doors of 'neath Writing in a passage to tend you and wreathe Your neck, yourself upon the darker of forests The sullen of plains The cradle of graveyards that lay within And to quote the poet. "Nevermore" Shall I lay in my death bed, but always ?neath the earths floor Well there you go tell me what you think.[/color][/size] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady Asphyxia Posted February 19, 2004 Share Posted February 19, 2004 [font=Verdana][size=1][color=#dc143c][color=black]Oh, lovely poem. Truely fantastic. Marvellous use of vocabulary, rhythm, and rhyme. While your rhyme pattern changed from stanza to stanza [From abab to aabb and back] it wasn't really noticeable, [I myself didn't even notice it until I've gone through the poem again] which I think is because the rhyme is [i]subtle[/i], without obvious rhymes like "bed" and "Ned" [Just to use an example, heh.] [/color][/color][/size][/font] [font=Verdana][size=1]The imagery is just gorgeous, in my opinion. You can see the vineyard, with the courtyard in front of it [Of course, it's just my opinion, heh.], the lightening and rain sort of slashing down, and it's just so [i]vivid[/i]. [/size][/font] [font=Verdana][size=1]The only place you seemed to slip was near the end, where you broke from the 4 line pattern and the length of your sentences became less regulated. The two last lines I had a bit of trouble with, because it took me a while to understand the jist of it -- it was where you started a new line that threw me.[/size][/font] [font=Verdana][size=1]All in all, I think it's a fantastic poem, and I wish to see more of your works.
