Tiny Red Rubies (Not Like In the Movies)

Contributed by Lee on Sunday, 26th September 2004 @ 10:16:58 PM in AEST
Topic: mystical



Long, bright stems
Green prickly gems
They say
It's fool's gold
The document
Is sealed
With wax
And mold

A crumpled leaf
Like Pegasus'
Swollen legs
Tired and
Out of
Breath from
Trying to
Outrun
The jaws
Of Cerberus
And thus:
Camouflages wings

This poem is a little beyond me. It seems good I just don't understand it.

I will not pretend I understand what you were trying to convey but It still was an enjoyable read and I like ones that make me think
