Flicker

A Poem by Whales

A light flashes, 
I don't know where or why,
But you can feel it.
And it was beautiful.

Shades of purple and whale,
For that split second I could feel it.
That pain, just goes away and i'm free.

I fly away and every direction and the sun,
As my body floats away, shines down on me.
A wonderful sight if thought about.

Through all this sadness and fear in their eyes,
In the depths of their minds,
They sensed it.
They felt it falloping in their spleens and arrow trees.
They knew, I felt happy,
I hope I flicker and die.
Down with the whales,
Holding me, hugging me.

How wonderful it would be.
Candles and wildflowers 
With whales of sunset 
and trees of smiles
Silver hearts full of bronze buttons and easily pushed
but never shoved.

The day never ends and I run,
Knowing that I am now safe.
Safe from the horrors of man
and their ideas of destruction
I am a whale, with rib cages that stick out and a dip chest.
Dangerously thin.
I don't care.
As long as my Whales are safe.

Whales
Again there are words that are made up, but you can feel the meaning. I'll be doing that a lot.

these whales you process, come up for air once in awhile, live on the surface until someone splashes your thoughts making them go deeper dark and dark in the crevice of an earthy feeling, current struck by time passing subliminal and dreaming..good stuff

this feels....... I don't know. I feel like I completely understand, yet have absolutely no idea what the heck your talking about. Well done. well done.

Although very confusing if I might say, I liked it. something about it gives a feeling of despair, while something else feels like hope...

I'm confused at this piece. . . It does have a serine tone to it, yet serenity and whales really aren't the first things that I piece together. Good write regardless, keep up the good work.
