--- The Catfish ---

Blub, blub, blub.
Yawn.
The undulations of the river plants
Are nearly hypnotic.
One tickles one of my whiskers
A caress from a silent friend.
Something splashes on the other side of the river.
Probably some
Of those five-headed monsters again.
They always move in pairs.
Odd.
Blub.

EDIT: Finally, page 10! Woohoo! Come on guys, let's get this poetry thing going again. :)

I don't often post my free verse, but this is one with which I am especially intrigued.

Memory

I am the invisible man,
staring through the window
of your heart
and Soul,
through eyes of infinite fault
and everlasting error.

I am the look on your face --
on theirs --
shifting shadows in the
nightmare called Reality,
the image you try
and fail
to recall.

I am the whispering wind,
quietly floating through
endless pangs of Guilt,
like zephyrs on an unforgotten shore,
whose jealous seas
are ever plotting.


I am your weeping heart,
shattered by the steely pain of time
and bringing Sorrow.
For though my footsteps on the shore
are washed away by the seas of time,
the knowledge that they were there
lives on.

~Infinite Epoch~

The stars twinkle betwixt the darkness
For you,
Are the only thing ever
That is the only thing
In every room I'm in.

The earth rotates in the desolate vastness
For you,
Are the pinnacle and apex
The limit of creation to create
Something as perfectly innate.

I am here upon the rock and water in starkness
For you,
Until the stars stops twinkling
And the earth stops rotating
Are my life, eternal everything.

Depression

My old friend Depression
knocked on my door,
and I invited him in
for a taste of tea,
we talked of
good times,
when he was living
with me,
of all the pain,
the agony.
I asked him why
he had returned,
instead of going on
to you
or them,
and he simply replied,
"It's because you're my only friend."

Ends

He's gone.
No letters.
Or E-mails.
Or texts.
Or phone calls.
There will never be
a word at all.
He's gone.
Yet...
you see him here.
He'll tell you he didn't
have the time.
Same old song.
Same old rhyme.
The world doesn't end
with a bang.
The world doesn't end
with a whimper.
The world ends in silence.
With words never said,
with words never read.
This is the way the world ends.
