"Concrete Bottles"
 
Madusa's snakes,
Slither along blank
Gaze; to pronounce
On darkened seams
Of a glass house.

Their stare binds
The weak mind.
As I etch a cross
Into the last waltz,
Dragging behind
Subtle led strides.

Kicking the weight
Of malice worlds
Off brittle shoulders,
To hear the shatter
Of fragile footing.

Lost in Madusa's
Most solid trance.
I've fallen threw,
And gotten drenched.

As she pitches
Me to shallow ponds
To weight her ship.

And here I drown.

Just to be pulled
Aboard on final gasp.
As the sun pats
The sea on its back,
Before taking its hold.

Medusa loves to watch.
Sh-She's a voyeur,
EXCITED BY MY COUGH!

Giggles as her toy
Ship is juggled now
By cackling clowns.
Twisted grins fumble
A plastic glee;
They simply fallow...
Gazing; blinklessly
They do as she,
And her stone
Action figure hopes
For a sort of ease
In the bottles throat.

Day by day water
Grows scarce.
Noah's arc wears
God's kiss never more;
Initial purpose served.

But what of Noah...
And his masterfull arc
After water lost heart?

Madusa's glare
Has sifted the sea.
Seperated the last
Drop of dense ocean,
And created a beach.
As the water dissolves,
Wounds are breached
By the callous of salts.

Here, I drown.
Choking down
The sands of lost
Time and past.
My prison intesified;
Pried of Ahabs lines,
And set in hourglass.

There she watches.
Meticulous as ever,
With magnifine glass
In hand she stares.
The fire in her eye
Ripples in the sky.
The heat triples
With every fine glance
She passionately lands.

........ The next morning.


My head seams lost
Within the pain
Of forgotten memory.
Stomach trembles
In the fears of unknown.

The pain more trouble
Than one could bare.
Choking thin air,
I reach for the bottle.

"Fuck.... This one's empty."

As I stare down
Misused anesthesia,
I hesitantly find...
.....nestled within
My lasting addiction,
Awaits a victim.

Every emotion here.
The bottom half just
Rests itself in a smile...
While the other half
Frowns in disgust.

And then I see it,
The absolute low;
Into the center
Of the bottom I dive,
To find Madusa's
Twisted gaze...
As I listen closer;

... Tip the bottle
As she flows outward.

Yet again, Pure dopeness. You never fail to impress.


First of all, I feel this could be made an even better read if you shortened it just a little.


You allways come up with most amazing titles, If a noob posted a poem called Concrete Bottles, I would think that what he was litterally talking about. But I know you always have a deeper meaning, and again you did that very nicely.

the final line finished off the poem pefectly by summing it up.

Dopeness overall.

Keep Writing

Ok, like I said to you on AIM. This piece was so so so so so deep and complex. I loved that part of it. Your vocabulary was astonoshing. Your emotion was very deep and goes straight to the mind.

The complexity alone in this piece perplexed for a good 5 minutes until I figured out what it all meant. I had a mental picture going, a bit distorted from the complexity but I still really enjoyed what I was reading.

Your structure is that of what I do. So it was REALLY easy for me to read this piece. The flow was so-so but then again, so is mine, so once again, I was very pleased with that.

This is a solid piece, and a good read. Everything here except for the flow was about a 10/10.

This is a great piece and gets my nomination.

wow, best i seen from you...and that means its ill man...

short lines indicate rushing and anguish,

this was packed with metas and imagery and was deep as fuck...it was also complex...reading deeper into the subject, the whole piece was interesting and fresh.

decent as always.

Paranoid 12-27-05 06:58 PM

damn pretty dope, um the down fall was your imagery, it wasn't horrible but it wasn't how great it usually is. I've seen better from you but this is pretty good the storyline is decent. vocabulary and flow was great but what most showed was your stucture and desire of emotion towards the topic, nicely done man. overall ima tell you that this is dope, very worthy of a rv spot.

My imagery? Really? Most were saying that was on but the emotion was alittle weak... Which I can see. But whatever, thanks alot for all the feedback everyone.

This was a cool read. Structure made the entire read flawless. Provided some good metaphors with decent foreshadowing. I thought that the ending was brilliant. I got the impression that you had started from the end and wrote your way to the beginning. You may not have noticed it, but better writers tend to start with the end in mind. Good job.

Ya actually... In my head when I was writing this I started with the concept and how I wanted to end it because I was looking to put in the message that I did. Damn, lol surprised you could even pick up on something like that. Thanks alot for the feedback.
