Depth of My Soul

the depth of my soul
feeds my intellect-
for I’m always lost,
craving to connect

visceral woe shines, 
like an ebon gem-
such cynical fear…
my care does condemn

You have written a very good one, LuLoo. I can't believe I never heard of this form before I saw people writing them today.

Really nicely done my friend. The second McWhirtle I've read today and I still don't know what a McWhirtle is. Do they come with a drink and fries? : )
