Happy voting!

Voted for Preve, because the first half (Happy) was really good. Amusing in imagery, and still artful. The last line made me laugh, even if the rest of it was dryly dark. "Heart" was lackluster, and I don't care to dissect it.
Blippy, as always, earned a begrudging chuckle and grin.
Zelderex, I liked your poem the best [Talore's being a close second, and Blippy also with the laughing]. I didn't really get to finish mine. Been an odd week. [Heart is, of course, even more unfinished.]

Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
my mouth is full of winsome lies -
and eyes are full of death besides
but luckily the soul is wise -
it sees beyond my blindness and
forced failure makes a better guise,
so as i come again alive,
it feels like life's a decent plan
