    MY BROKEN ROPE

    I stand alone, behind a blind sheet of glass,

    Stuck in a whirlpool, I’m bound by my cast,

    I am a leaf, blowing like a tumble weed,

    Living what I’ve sewed, bound by my seed,

    Engulfed in flames, my life is in turmoil,

    Poisoned is my plant, laid in this soil,

    Strong is the tiger, and loud is the lion,

    But scared is the weak, lost and dying,

    I stare at the heavens, and it seems right,

    But lost is the love, gone in the night,

    I’m an image, vanished in reflection,

    Which way to go, so many directions,

    Please give me faith, and show me hope,

    Hanging by a strand, from a broken rope.

    here's what ya gotta do... 1.tie the rope in a knot. 2. fetch some duct tape. 3. cut a piece of tape about 3.14 feet long 4. wrap the tap tightly around the knot. 5. get a new rope because i doubt 1-4 would work. 6. talk to an awsome person, such as myself, and feel better. 7. be happy, and dont let anything bring you down. 8. dont let ANYONE upset you. 9. do whatcha gotta do, keep ya head up. 10. be a 10!, but for real, you did a good job with this. its deep. i liked it as a poem but i didnt like it only because of the fact that you sound down, dont be down, be a clown. =), great job!

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
