quick mud

On reading Noel's poem Time -- thanks for the inspiration.

heart hammers
against the sand
turning quickly
from sludge to
cement,
stuck in eternities
coming back to me
altered realities, 
of the skeletal variety,
pulled from behind
doors of destinies
from which I thought
there was no key --

                              trapped in your mud.

Good lord KL, I posted my poem 3.7 minutes ago, and you read it, reviewed it, and came up with an inspiration from it, wrote it, found a song and picture to match and published it. You ARE a freakin' alien, Frieda was right along!

Well written as well, I might add.

[Frieda P]

I told you!!

[NoelHC]

Yeah, and she probably did it from her phone with its tiny screen, and wearing eyeglasses with an old prescription so she can barely see the screen. Alien, confirmed. Where are Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones and all the MIB stuff when you really need it.

[Frieda P]

Ha ha...that actually made me laugh out loud, tis true too!

[Lyn Anderson]

I actually didn't from phone, but on my netbook, Yes, still sporting my black eye and my old prescription -- at a car dealership waiting for the oil change ...:)

[NoelHC]

Fricking alien, we know it. XOXOXO : )

[Frieda P]

A dragon alien no less! ;) haha

[jacob erin-cilberto]

I like the entire poem, but the last three lines are so hard hitting...nicely done.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thank you so much. I appreciate it.

[The Rock And Roll Cowbo..]

Those quick writes of inspiration can be some of the most powerful… well done KL.

[Lyn Anderson]

thanks so much. I didn't actually realize I was that quick. Noel has me on stop watch.:)

[NoelHC]

Yeah, one of those fancy high tech ones that reads right to the nano second. : )

[Frieda P]

Whoa you're quick...I just read Noel's poem! Perfect, sounds like sludge, or quicksand's impulsion of time.

[Lyn Anderson]

Thanks. I think it's funny Noel times me. Our weird little game.

[Frieda P]

Seriously, you don't need to be timed, you're there in a flash! ha

[NoelHC]

You are awe inspiring KL, that's why I keep track, it is usually not very long between concept and product.
