Down and below ants and men struggling for survival with slogans of different verse and shape but they all saying: oh! Life, you are so painful! And I, one step from the stars and their heads had the time to reconsider it all. FANCY US by Guillermo Chacín October 2010 Fancy us meeting on a mirror’s edge at the laser’s eye first blink milliards of needle-like sparkling beams will make you understand what eternity is all about while my tongue licks a certain divine syrup that wets your eyelids Fancy us meeting on a railway track, iron versus iron is good for lovers` wealth STOP! NO VERSE SHOULD BE WRITTEN AS I TELL YOU THIS: –the dormouse on the wedding dress was dead this morning while we were rolled over by nightly songs– Fancy us meeting on a burning bench –inside and hollow– birds bathed in fire. No more the Odyssey of the forgotten kiss and for a last effort tomorrow’s balance shall be better. Untitled Poem by Guillermo Chacín June 2010 Can the other side of love be thus? this that is worse than starvation that finds you alone in the crowds that simulates the terrible clapping of doors closing at your back It is a nest of pins for your heart to rest it is a shadow, a winter cloud that rains furiously upon your lifting soul and under this oppression it is your prayer, it is your song It is a landmark between the heart and the mind, it is the suppression of all desire yet desire is the stepping-stone.   Claire's Poetry I Claire's Poetry II Claire's Poetry III Claire's Poetry IV Claire's Poetry V Claire's Poetry VI Claire's Poetry VII Poetry by Denise Adair Jewel's Poetry Poetry by Jonathan Adam Thorn's Poetry I Thorn's Poetry II Poetry by David A.
