Grex Poetry Item 78: Survivor of the Decade
Entered by zoe on Wed Apr 21 19:30:26 UTC 1999:

razor edge memories
slicing into my mind once again
joyous times and the rememberence of loss
pushing me further
            and further
now i cry once more--
              for all i had,
                  that was slaughtered for the sake of blame.
though she stands close
                      holding my insides
                         reminding me that i'm still here--
                           a survivor of the pain of this decade
             and i could do it again
                and that i will make it through...

i'm not getting all wierd about my poetry or anything, but my agent 
told me to type a disclaimer... i don't really feel it is that 
necicary, but i'm trying to start a book, and its good to have it there 
just incase..

you can get just as far legally with "(c)1999 Zoe Frost, All Rights Reserved"
and it's easier to type. =}

anyway, I like this one a lot.

Good stuff.  Let me know when your book comes out.

You have always done well, but you are improving your own skills and 
sense of personal style.  Your shorter poems seem more effective, and 
you are more comfortable with spacing.

Have you experimented with lengthening spacing between letters or 
individual words to control the pace?

Zoe, you're getting really good :)  Keep up these efforts and best of 
luck on publishing a book.
