A legendary woman once devoured
men's flesh between her teeth.
Forsaken and weary, she prayed
to discover love's miracle.
Years spent chasing dreams
like an obsessed dog chases its tail . . .

I sit in the dark
listening to music
waiting to be free,
counting days
till I can leave
and start all over again
in poverty.

Accolade knows us by name
It is our sun and it is our rain
Our depth of strength
Cause we know it must come.
Alas! here is the rainy season
Our strive, our joy lies with one reason;

Dawn when seemed never.
Prayer through eyes to the sky spread wide
A one wish only . . .

My mission to help children halted by a Medusa.
I feel my life sinking into a dark abyss.
Squelched under intimidation, tears replace joy. . . .

The ideas are ingrained
The wrongness is apparent
Confusion it does reign
No sense to most it warrants
The persistence of a thought
Once was taken by the board
Has now a certain cultish turn, . . .

This group, First Time Writers and it also includes all kinds of poetry is to give people a place where they can express themselves with others who are also new and wish to try out their skills. A place that's friendly and no criticism is hurtful EVER, or even there unless asked for. Most people do ask for a critique, but that doesn't give one the right to rip them apart. Come and make this the "nice" peoples writer's place.
