Ruptured Umbilical Cord

lost every notion of life's cosmic rhythms
atrophied links with nature
blind deaf marionettes

'Blind and deaf puppets'. So many ways to give meaning to that...

Sad one, Line. I just happened on this one and saw nobody had been here yet. Isn't it crazy at Soup lately? I might as well not spend much time here if it does me hardly any good. I want to be watching tv!! Let me find that pantoum of yours though. I think there is a way to search one's poetry by form and find something. If you have very few pantoums, It should be easy to figure out.
