Easy
Having not been able to post on here as much as I’ve wanted recently I end up thinking…’What I need is something quick and easy to post’
And immediately my mind goes to a poem…but poems are not easy o.O I guess it must just be evidence of my lack of skill in them perhaps, since i tend to go at poetry with a entirely random ‘do it on the night’ attitude.
Ah well let’s see how it goes today
also what’s your go to post type for a place holder or to satiate that need to update?
=====Living Disorder=====
Grey brown, leaf mould ground. Silent twigs bare and cold, all green and growing things seem old.
But waiting there behind the rot, nestled in the living root. There is life and spring and bud, growing, spreading in dark and mud.
Hold on to this spinning ball, careening through our celestial fall, the burning light of our sun will once again ignite our world bringing fire to our hearts and saplings curled.
All life is playful chaos, a fire burning bright, setting atoms into flight through dark and endless cold, cold night.
Do not fear the burning, the explosion of mad colour, for in our beings we are yearning for that sweet abandon and flames living power.

I didn’t know you are good at poem
@fabolousclown - :P I’m not sure I am lol
But I do seem to keep trying
Interesting poem. I wonder what evoke such thoughts.
It’s possible that it hit me this way because it’s viciously cold here today, but this made me think maybe Spring will come one day after all. Very nice.
And my go-to post is usually a lame update of my day that I end up deleting. This idea is much better!
@nov_way - Well the ‘creative process’was somwthing along these lines…
‘Hmm what shall I write about?’
*Looks out window, sees the cold bare looking winter landscape*
‘Ah okay how about something like those poems I’ve heard about the changing seasons’
*Begins writing some pretty word images about winter colours and themes*
‘Oh this reminds me of a science documentary that was on about how order is the natural state of the universe, where as it seem blatantly obvious to me that disorder and chaos are life where as order and coldness is the natural state, hmm this could be a good theme, and I can get a pet peeve off my chest too’
*Writes a bit more changing themes from winter to the feeling of fire and life and burning*
And thats pretty much how I came up with it
hehe
@EmilyandAtticus - Lol There is no such thing as a lame update online, that is the vast majority of what we are all looking to read
And yeah that and the comment above is pretty much the point of my poem
I can finally understand it! Thank you =D
“where as it seem blatantly obvious to me that disorder and chaos are life where as order and coldness is the natural state” Perhaps life is chaotic in an orderly manner? (If that makes sense. Hopefully. )
Nice thought, nonetheless.
@nov_way - You’re welcome
And yes I don’t think of dis-order and order as bad or good, it’s just a different way…so I quite like the idea of living orderly chaos
=D
