Hard solid wetness admires itself never asking for more.
Far from frozen like the cleanest glass in the never-lasting
sunlight. A crystal in the company of many other crystals
in the darkest coldest cave; who''s ground is whiter than
the full moon. The explorer would walk through the
cave which polar bears once walked through. He''d swing
the flash light at the crystals which now looks like the angry
sharp teeth of a Saber-toothed tiger's mouth. The explorer blinks, sniffs his pink runny nose and grins. The cave''s unwelcoming
silence fills his mind, he heads towards the exit and glances
back "No can do," he''ll go and find some other cave,
perhaps that''s alive with creatures far from his knowing.
The sun peeks over the snow blankets into the ice-sickled
cave once more, who''s golden glaze of warming heat frosts
the frozen beauty. Till the glass shines its'' best and a droplet
so clear so beautiful it''s nothing.

The author's comments:
It's a dark cake with ice-sickles that glow in the sun's never lasting light!

LOL! Everyone keeps saying it's a poem! I didn't mean for to confuse people, I wrote this when I was just getting into writing. Dunno if you get this or not, I also feel quite silly for replying to a two-year old comment. u_u

"It's a saying they have, that a man has a false heart in his mouth for the world to see, another in his breast to show to his special friends and his family, and the real one, the true one, the secret one, which is never known to anyone except to himself alone, hidden only God knows where."
-James Clavell, "Shogun"

This is really awesome! I love anything dark, and mysterious...I have a strange fascination with it, and this poem captures the uncertainty of the cave so well.

This is so creative. I for some reason read this and thought this could almost relate to life! Just goes to show how people can read the same poem yet come up with different interpretations:) I loved it!

Love. A four letter word, short but true. With no hope of being defined. But what's new?



-S. Jordan

Very good article. Love how you compared the ice crystals to the teeth of a saber-tooth tiger. intresting comparison.
