Dump your guts in ten lines or LESS

Do not exceed ten lines. This is the thread rule here . Speak from your heart. Respectfully, Magantice

There was a ringing
Reality called my soul
My mind hangs up on the obscene caller
Voicemail is now receiving
Calls of screaming....
Reject the mark
Just one more prison to go.

I awoke,
A brilliant burst of kaleidoscopic light encircled my eyes,
Into it's brilliance i strode,
And in it's magnificence,
I sought myself,
Only to discover that, it isn't only me,
It is all of us, together.

Floating high above the earth,
I see the beauty of all things,
I understand the unfathomable,
The innate connection with all,
We are the all the all is us,
We are who we have been waiting for,
I ego is but an unpleasant memory,
I move into the love an light,
All is peace, all is well

the night sky creeping upon from above, and the sea i see

a strange familiar surrounding as if from a dream


instead of 2 id like to be 8 ahead of reality

and reality is all ive know until recently, then recently i declined

Reading this thread made me wonder.
Why hasn't a mod moved it to BTS.
Then the lights dimmed and I clicked away.
Ever present were they.
How could this have slipped.
My heart sank at the bandwidth waste.
I muttered out loud then walked away.
All the while in dismay.
I refreshed the screen hoping it would leave.

Dearest Slayer69
This thread is fine
It speaks of the souls of men...

Women too will have a view
of secrets held within.....

You ...... you're like a tin opener

You opened me up

Then spilt me out.

And then you walked away.

Not pausing to say

'Sorry'

What can i say in ten mere lines of prosaic verse
that has yet to be uttered by the mouths of men?
The same wisdom litters the ground like so much debris discarded,
for I'm tired of tripping over generic broken philosophy when i stride.
So i refuse to toss my refuse wantonly to the wayside
like so much bottles and cans, and bottles and cans.
I promised myself long ago that every breath i took
was preparatory for the recitation of the prayer of life.
And as i exhale and recite the prayer of life once again
i leave you to ponder the cessation of this breath's prayer.

Ooh my God,
is this happening for real?

I woke up frightened from this dream,
the humans were freaking ruining everything!

Tried to help people see that,
We are all One, and there is none but Love..

Yet they are all blind,
Dumbfounded by the powers that be, the power elite..

..are they even really humans,
or just a bunch of crazed Reptilian beings?

this is the most amazing gift that anyone can give
its the story of a man named jesus who died so we could live
his is a famous story, yet many still dont know
the more we learn about him the more our peace will grow
an awesome seed has now been sown, a decision can be made,
to take advantage of this good news
or sadly let it fade......................

I woke on the wrong side of the bed

I reach for the vaporizor to ease my aching head

I breathe in the first morning air

I like back and at the ceiling I stare

I feel the mong, the mong is strong

I drift away in a toastie haze

This is how i spend most of my days

So far......this thread is going exactly as I had hoped.

The is nothing more above top secret than what is truely going on in the minds of our fellow human beings.

Thank you for not belittleing another persons gut feelings.

Thank you.

i rubbed my eyes and looked again

more bandwidth had been wasted

an ATS post cluttered up with BTS defacement

it wont take ten lines

maybe eight

to post how I feel cheated

i hope a mod will move this thread

in BTS repeat it

(end sarcasm)




EDIT

Oh my wishes do come true!

My love, I tell you my soul cries out in agony for your touch, your presence, and your healing embrace. I weep in discomfort at the thought of your spirit in flight without mine, aloft on the winds of another. I am grounded and weighted here by the anchor of my pain.
Immeasurable is my love for you, not all the grains of sand in the sierra can compare, not but all the stars in the heavens could equal. If I could just once more partake in the beauty your eyes contain therein, that, which I have burning and agonizing me, tormenting my thoughts and my heart may at once become quenched. To obtain a reprieve from this demons grip I would certainly seek audience with you, my love, as I would find the journeys perils a worthy price to pay in exchange for peaceful thoughts until my final hour. To close an UN closable novel, to rid of an insatiable thirst,

I was wondering how long it would take someone to simply break the number ONE RULE of this thread: CAN NOT BE MORE THAN 10 LINES!

Took a bit longer than I had thought... but not by much. Is it that people dont listen or people lack respect for structure in general - especially in discussions? Or do they lack respect for people rather than structure?

I dont have to point out the offender. Its obvious. But was it to them and they posted anyway?

(Im good with 9! - surprised - Im very verbose.)

Sorry to be so upfront but I just had to, its only obvious alyosha1981's beautiful poem was the first to break the rule. I dont believe it was done on purpose though... looks to me like a simple line break that wasnt meant to be there anyways? -ignorance or a Lack of disrespect most likely wasnt the case. Humanity's perfect imperfection, maybe?

Tomorrow

summer sets...

fading...

as the winters of reality

encroach the dreams

of yesterdays forgotten

Tomorrow

summer sets...

but today

today I live
