somebody say something. most people dont use their initiative because nobody told them to. well now im telling you, say something. this silence is ringing within my ears and my patience is wearing thin and my patient is wearing nothing and has gouged out her eyes in a hope of seeing what we cannot see. to catch sight of enlightenment we will never reach and of everything we cannot be. im sick to the bone, and im sick of this skin and i sick of wanting to be free. most people dont use their initiative because nobody told them to. well now im telling you. stand up for what you believe but sit down until your told to. sit still so they cant see you dont breathe in until i do.

i like your style. interesting choice in subject matter.. i enjoyed it much. the middle portion of this piece proved to be the most captivating.. the imagery of the girl/woman gouging out her eyes to see what we cannot see was very effective.
nice work. i look forward to more.

I actually agree with melis. This poem is full of originality and that is as John said, a plus. Your originality puts you out there in the standings with your poetry. Some of your work I have to say has been a bit controversial and confusing but, this one stood out because of it's originality. Good Job

"and has gouged out her eyes in a hope of seeing what we cannot see. to catch sight of enlightenment we will never reach and of everything we cannot be. "
That has to be my favorite part of the poem. It means to me that people never want to see the truth because the truth hurts. Not always but that is what a lot of people may think. I could be wrong but that is how I saw this poem. Great work!
