  • The New Day Comes…
    by Kristin Reynolds

    The new day comes on feet of gold, / now severed from the nights dark hold, / it shines for all the world to see, / while one side breaks th…

    A poem of the dawning of a new day, with no mistakes in it. I needed to hear this myself today…so thought someone else might need to hear it, too. Everyone has days where they don’t like themselves, but the new day always comes, ready to begin anew, bringing another chance for salvation and light.

  • The Raw of Parting
    by Kristin Reynolds

    To shine upon the frozen grass as sun / allowing all the years of hurt to thaw, / while running ‘long the line, I bid to shun / the gifts of…

    I wrote this months ago, but am needing to hear it again today. Maybe someone else may as well. :) This is a poem about self-absorbtion, and how the dark of sinking within the self only breeds more darkness and loss, not allowing for the light to come and shine upon you.

  • song of silent protest
    by Jordan Busson

    too long have i let silence into my heart / too long has it dwelt in its dark and narrow house

    i think most people will be able to relate to this, each in their own and personal way. / too often we let silence into our hearts, when we should be letting our voice free. / too often we hide our own light, so that the light of others may shine brighter, not considering our own loss. we all have talents. we all have voices. / now we must take that step forward into the light, and show the world that we all have a voice. / 27 august 2009.

    Inspired by Earthmonster’s image and a collaboration unfolds… Dances with Wolves

  • 'house of usher' darkness
    by Erika .

    I scratched my name out of my tombstone

    I felt like I was writing something similar to Poe’s “The Fall of the House of Usher” (if you’ve read it before, you’ll know what I mean) / Our family’s truth is not our own. At least not entirely. I believe I’ve broken the family tradition.

  • The Death of Her Pas De Deux
    by Kristin Reynolds

    I never should have handed you / my pretty pink ballet slippers. They had hung off the edge of my bed / for as long as I can remember, / ...

    having a relationship with someone with mental illness can be very taxing. This is just a vent on being the one trying to interact with the one suffering from depression and/or bi-polar disorder. / It is so hard trying to balance the want to be with someone who is not there much of them time…wanting to love them, wanting them there...and the plain, hard fact that they cannot be alot of the time due to their illness – medication or not.

  • it was The Poetry that saved my soul
    by Kristin Reynolds

    I wake / an earthquake / in the rain; / a sacrificial lamb of light / followed by a dream… *The power and the glory, / forever and ever, ...

    This is a true story. / This was a very vivid nightmare (or rather, one of my “dreamalities” as I have dubbed them, where the dream is real; a lucid dream in which both my subconscious and conscious came to the late-night party.) / anyway… / before the black-robed devil’s; the minions of The Black-maker (my also dubbed eveil step-father…who i could feel in the background, behind it all) dragged me into the portal of hell…those words came out of nowhere (and everyhwere) in my head… / and when I began reciting that prayer, the black robes writhed and screamed their way below the ground, dissipating in agony and defeat. / The Black-maker? he left pissed, I’m sure. / I woke up then; shaking like an earthquake, still speaking the end of the prayer. Outloud. / It was my own voice that woke me. / I will never forget that experience. I wrote 2 poems about this dream…this is one of them.
