You are Poetry.
You are often the most emotional of the arts. You
are introverted, in that you tend to let people
come to you rather than trying to get their
attention. You get along well with Music and
Literature.

Once again folks... It's that time. Week seemed to really roll by fast this time. My top five poetry blogs for the week are as follows:

No. 5 Mikarrhea (back after an absence for a while)

No. 4 Blue Kangaroo (another from a past list)

No. 3 The Chatelaine's Poetics (two weeks in a row at No. 3)

No. 2 Poetry Hut Blog (moving up from No. 5 last week)

No. 1 Chewing on Pencils (four weeks in a row at No. 1)

Great Week Of Blogs!!!

Really?

You are Anne Sexton - a sensual, wild person with a
taste for adultery. You prey on lesser
talents, luring them into your bed and into
your poetry. You are the Venus Fly-Trap of
confessional poets.

Who is Your Alter Poet?
brought to you by Quizilla

untitled

awaken
this, another day enslaved
in gray
no black
no gray

make up your mind lad
what shall it be
if it matters

i can't even turn off the lights
and be alone in my darkness

it's not bright enough
but too bright to hide the dark
i can't even pretend

though it may pass
it surly will come again
with it's sharp blade of steel
touching my back
a prick of red
but only a drop to remind me
of mortality

and i shall shiver and protest the
harshness of this sentence
but upon deaf ears
