without, since, and become the nightless

Every walk of ascent to be theft,
then butcher the old broom of reason to warning.
Reach for sound as to deaf is the slaughter,
and recent reprise is the waiting of ever.
Only towers are breaking the line
that a master of torture is teaching to children.
With bone and with order, they break you in silence,
and with rain in the concrete, betrays every forest.

Only after a prayer to a woman,
are you saved from the truth of the warfair.
But you didn't know of the findings,
so with fire, the truth pages burning inside of us,
and mother is resting
with old father's name.

Dance to pretend that the maiden,
will be dancing with ivory
and alone with this pride.
But pride is the skin tear of asking for moments,
pride is the brick they will place on the lender.

Without even stones to remember,
the way that was lost and the last golden ember.
Summer has children and betrays every sickness,
leaves for the winter a wealth of sorting of skies
and broken refrain...

Regretfully I am not as skilled with words as you are..so I can't find a way to explain to you why I like your writing. But I can't seem to resit telling you again that I did in fact enjoy it.
Without even stones to remember,
the way that was lost and the last golden ember.
Summer has children and betrays every sickness,
leaves for the winter a wealth of sorting of skies
and broken refrain...
Thats the way to end a poem :wink:

Hey George or LIB- If you guys can notice the edit, I would love to know what it is... :(
I realize that is a STUPID question but it has been one of those few days...

Ep ~

That happened to me once, only once, but once is enough ~ an Edited line showed up when I hadn't made an Edit. NOt sure if that's what you're saying there, but if it is........

Hey Liz- That is, I guess, what happened. But I'm not sure. I wrote this for the first time on the board and when I went to write it on paper, there was an edit. I do not remember editing and I have no notes to compare... :?
I was on a date with some motor oil flavored rum however... so anything is quite possible...
Damn.
