Threshold of Barriers

Threshold of Barriers


        Crossing the threshold of another 
            world to come...should I go...Can
                I make it...wait, no just wait...

                    Pulling back within the depths of shadows
                        just to observe...what are you doing?...
                           Get out of here...Go, Run, Go...

                               Sprinting forward towards the barriers
                                   that bind me here...I am gonna break it...
                                       and overtake it...Don't you stupid fool...

Timothy Hicks March 10, 2016 at 10:51 PM Every great turning point is bracketed with opposition and support ... great way to express yourself with the inner turmoil, mixed with confidence. Should I congratulate your bravery (or shame your stupidity)...? ;) Brian Davey March 11, 2016 at 1:10 AM Ah you have to do both my friend for you can be stupid and brave at the same time can you not?

Brian Mcclain March 8, 2016 at 6:24 PM Hi Brian, Dang! That's a fine poem--taut and tense and full of foreboding. Good, spare use of language. Kudos! Cheers, Brian Brian Davey March 10, 2016 at 1:46 AM Thank you Brian I am glad you enjoyed it!
