X Stuck Inside These Four Walls

Slipping away in time and space Stuck inside these four walls, lonely souls tangled and lost, they dance to t s h o e l a r c h e y t i h n e m t s evets h neres e o seetv f resne r a t i e n a r t d h r e o y p s t w t i h s e t and swirl inside of innuendos. They claim desires, the desire of longing The desires of love, they demand yet make no claims Opening hearts leads to bloodshed, despair, agony The dance of desire leads only to emptiness So on misty clouds, the dancer dance Entwined in thought, yet never that first kiss Sadly the love fades into the night

Very cool! I can't seem to figure out the centre part, you might have to explain it to me. See TV is all that makes sense in the third line.

Well Richard, I think I will have to add you to the payroll, but I have to say I really appreciate it!! I put an X infront of the title so its easy to find the SAME poem that keeps changing!!! :) ( this one sure wasn't easy to format )

You Kill me Arthur! As long as it's A&W I suspect it would be very effective *lol*!

Well so far all I see is 1 loyal fan, I am thinking maybe add a root-beer bottle into the mix, see if that picks things up!

On my I-phone it didn't show the cubes, this is far better! You are a cleverly fellow! Thanks for reading my Orange Crush, I have finished number 3.

Yes I know, I am a Star Trek Fan! Jean Luc Picard was my favourite captain. They will never assimilate you Arthur, their collective minds would explode.

Thanks Richard, and the verses where supposed to represent Cubes, and you you know I have no idea, with each transition I have no idea the next one, which means this is as surprising to me as any of you.

I'm guessing the "Q" doesn't stand for Quiet *lol*!

This is poem that is constantly changing/shifting, so to speak, almost daily, time permitting :)

More to come, the shape, words, meanings will slowly morph into new poems all based on original!

You have always been pretty; peoples stupidity is what does the damage, Arthur... Human nature is to judge, but they have not been in your shoes to understand what you've gone through. Blessings and Merry Christmas angel of God 7

One could read a lot of things into this poem! Reincarnation is one of them I...guess! Deep and dark poem into which one could be lost and could be found many a time. Oh, yes, you have outdone Edgar Allen, our friend! Mysterious and enlightening my friend Arthur!
