"Poetry corner"

The idea behind this place is that instead of starting your own thread with one poem they can all go in here instead.
Here is then, a place for your all your word's of beauty, anger, love, disappointment and anything else you care to add.

Use Your Imagination

Use your imagination,
Break down the boundaries,
Escape from reality,
Be free.

There is nowhere you cannot go,
Nothing you cannot be,
"Impossible" is not a word,
Unless you want it to be.

For just a second,
Close you eyes,
Block out the light,
And see.

Use Your Imagination.

(No, thats not the title) :-D

This was intended as a part of The Cage but i didnt think it fitted very well, hence why it is quite short.This is intended to be read quickly.

No Way Out

There's no escape
No hiding place
No shadowy world
Where i cant be traced
No mercy given
No chance of living
No christmas rest
Or warm thanksgiving
I'd like to rest, to stop, to cease
My mind won't give me any peace

The Cage

Trapped by a prison
A cage of my mind
I could pack up and run
leave it all behind
But despite what i do
My cage will follow
And the ways of the world
Will still leave me hollow
An empty shell
And trapped in my mind
Is my personal hell
I can't leave behind

I think i'm going to add to this as i've got an idea.

I remember that one Kyle, I really liked the idea of it!

Digital Existence

My life is a circus act and I am the dazzling finale
A tightrope act, distracted by commotion below
January Sales, ten percent off, and remote controls
Salesmen lie in wait, posing as friends but secretly foe.

I work like a space monkey in a job that I hate
When my pay packet comes I buy things I don’t need
Mp3 player, holds up to 8 hours of music!
Whilst others juggle two jobs, many mouths to feed.

Squandering cash on broadband, CD players, mobile phones
Digitally severed limbs, cash bleeding, social amputees
A techno era, binary, credit cards and buy now pay later
Worship in online churches, pray down on virtual knees

Solidarity is momentary, worn out, a thing of the past
Figures on spreadsheets in offices, currency now obsolete
Don’t forget to gather belongings, the circus is closing
Please take your change from the slot, downloading, complete.

Yeah, I'll give it a shot if someone proposes a title.

Some one give me a title to do a poem on, I can't think of one. . . please!

In here Davyboy. :-D

Blatant pop, I’m bored.

Some Ol' Thread

There was this thread,
It looked so dead,
‘Poetry corner’ it had said,
So now it is back ahead,
It can be easily read,
So I’m off to bed.

Right, I'm actually tired now. G’night everyone!
