Period

Battling the silence of the muses. I have mustered this.

Period

 

 

 

Comma,

I have given pause to you

within this life

and have contemplated,

nay, Questioned this mark

I have made upon

this world that continues

its Exclamation, its point,

in which I find no comfort,

nor confirmation

and thus end,

not within this single moment,

but within nothing more

than this Period.

I once thought there wasn't much to punctuations. But since the day I realized the little magic they can create, I've been always using them -- quite cautiously!

And this one, is just one refreshing read. Kind of, off-beat poetry; but not very poetic as your other pieces: Prose poetry? Maybe!

Keep writing.

Brilliant piece! Very clever and melancholy. Good job!

[Dianah]

Very clever and amusing.I'm definitely going to save this one.

Cheers

I really enjoy how you delve into the simplest things and express them so profoundly....period.

[ABitBrokenPoetry]

brilliant. explaining our existence by means of punctuation marks. everyone has these moments in life, questioning their own purpose. you blow my mind. another brilliant, thought-provoking write.

[Julio Angel Ortiz]

Very meta-textual. I like this one a lot; very clever in its use of language and punctuation as if it were a living thing. Nicely done.

[wolfshrew]

so much greatness in the shortness of this

[Clouded in Hopeful Illu..]

I really enjoyed your word play in this one. It is hard to not get lost in the cleverness of what you are trying to do here, but I think you did a great job of also telling a story without relying on the word play.

Happy Writing.

I like your play on words and the punctuation marks. The extended metaphors are well thought out. This piece shows real creativity.
