Au Memoire
Short. Unfortunate. Maybe an understatement on both counts. How do you feel when you remember things that never happened?
Fiction: General, M, English, words: 442, 1/5/2006
2Ashes
This is a poetic interpretation of the disparity of the apathetic soul, in a sense caused by the apathetic nature of the rest of the world, but also with respect to the repetition of neglectful themes throughout history (not literature).
Poetry: General, K, English, Poetry, words: 244, 11/4/2005
3The Giants and the Girl At the Water's Edge
The title is summary enough.
Poetry: Life, K, English, Spiritual & Fantasy, words: 122, 10/31/2005
2Disintertwixt
A sort of conclusion to Intertwixt: I fell in love with the wrong girl for all the right reasons.
Poetry: Love, K, English, words: 171, 10/28/2005
1Intertwixt
This one's particular. I could say how and most especially why, but I'd rather not. I imagine it can be worked out with the proper patience and frame of mind. Take what you can get.
Poetry: Love, K, English, Angst, words: 201, 10/27/2005
3A Bus Ride In New Thebes
Funny, in its own peculiar way.
Fiction: Humor, K, English, Humor, words: 775, 10/20/2005
1 The Spinner's Tale
The Spinner's Tale. This is abstract poetry, and of the things I have written, this is what I would far and away currently call the best. It is a compilation of four poems sharing a common universe and theme. The compilation is complete.
Poetry: General, K, English, Poetry, words: 888, 10/17/2005
3Legend
I've a feeling I will one day be very fond of this, if ever come as many days as requisite dubs fit. " If you enjoy fantasy to the extent of elves, etc., or if you enjoy poetic, literary, and/or symbolic structure, please read and review.
Poetry: Fantasy, K, English, words: 163, 10/5/2005
Dogma Rhetorical and Practical In Short
A poetic landscape of the broken soul
Poetry: General, K, English, words: 62, 10/1/2005
1A Blank Sonnet of an Empty Page
This is an interpretation of poetry (or, more specifically, the sonnet). It does not address any one poem specifically, but instead offers the reader a look into the nobility of the form independent of its specific content.
Poetry: General, K, English, Poetry & Spiritual, words: 115, 9/28/2005
1Fancied
This is a pretty short one with many implications. If you read it, please read it carefully and multiple times before you comment. Thanks.
Poetry: General, K, English, words: 128, 9/25/2005
1The Maker
This one's extremely complicated. It basically personifies and plays out the relationships between fantasty, myth, religion, good, and evil. You'll like it much more if you think about it, but even if you don't, it has its cosmetic appeal.
Poetry: Fantasy, K, English, Tragedy & Spiritual, words: 164, 9/21/2005
2Missed Fortune
Here's one you'll probably need to read about four hundred times to understand. It makes sense though. Really.
Poetry: Life, K, English, Tragedy, words: 176, favs: 1, 9/13/2005
