Rolling Waves

Rolling waves crash in Spinning over my cast head Playing a death song Screeching siren echoing Piercing my ill-laden ears I listen, I hear The cymbals of the huge waves Resound their glory The great gravity is brave Conquers in my mind and soul

    Powerful lines on that second stanza...like how u separated listening and hearing with a poetic pause...have a nice weekend, Russ.

    I liked the imagery of this, such as cymbals of the huge waves and "great gravity." Rolling waves are a good poetic topic!
