Epoch of Mass Deletion

A Writer's Cafe exclusive. Something I have been thinking about since the accidental deletion of everyones' writings. Giving the situation similiar status to the extinction of the dinosaurs.

 

Epoch of Mass Deletion

 

Syllables graze

Upon the page

Amongst similes

And metaphors alike

As onomatopoeia buzzes about,

Alliterating thought,

Unaware of the coming plight.

 

Verbage soars

Through the sonnet fields

Seeking shelter

From the nature

Of haiku,

Its story, once upon a time,

Dwelt within poetic flight.

 

Wisdom roams,

Adjectively defined,

While hunting punctuation

Beneath participles dangling

From ideas blooming

In the brilliance of thought,

Birthed in both darkness and light.

 

The scene tranquil

Suddenly disrupted.

Words run-on, rampant,

Sentenced to silence

As the finger of God

Falls upon "delete"

Without rhyme or reason in sight.

Were you drinking or on med.s when you wrote this? Most people have to be in order to create something with abosolutely no walls. This piece is like pure raw imagination, unfiltered, uncensored and uninhibited. I love it for its ability to tranverse. In fact its that very nature about it that might have me misinturpreting it. Maybe not. Either way I gave you salute for having the ability to let it all hang out like that.

nice one.. a God who makes mistakes?... very well written.. so much wonder in small piece to reiterate a hasty accident... wheew. not to worry anywmore, i got over with it already... but it really took a while though restoring each loses... hehe...anyway, its worth it.

this pictures great wordings, syntax is very professional...well ellicited in each lines... with coll and magnificent wordings, and what poetic title... kudos!

[The Archangel Gabriel]

Extremely well penned! That is an interesting change of pace from my usual mix... I love the way that you make fine literature come alive in this piece of art!

Kudos. I would say that you beat me to it (:) ), but I really missed that draw!
