[Angeljlb96@aol.com] ET: 2 poems [Naomi Vaughn ] ET: a poem I started a few days ago and finished now ["Seth D. Fulmer" Subject: ET: 2 poems good afternoon/evening wonderful angels ~ I hope everyone is doing well. I’m alright...just getting over the flu. I know, real exciting. so, um, here’s a couple poems I wrote. Is ‘vying’ a word? Hehe...I looked it up, and apparently it isn’t. So, oh well, now it is. It basically means, ‘to struggle or fight for’...or something like that. Okay, comments and otherwise are much appreciated. love you all... as always, Naomi the unknown "okie" stardust dreaming angel ;) - -- morning start I wipe the dew from my rosy rims and stretch towards the new day eager and full of hope fresh and green with envy of that coffee cup that gets to soothe you while my vines wrap around your ankles vying for attention- you shake me away, and pour another cup peering, half-interested into the morning newspaper same old hate, same old crime. I wind around your forearm, make my way around your neck but you take no notice and get up to leave, ripping my roots from the earth. 12:20am/1dec98 - -- I do cloak my sight with veil of lace hush my cry with sweet flower of tongue halt my every fear with patient hand, eager flesh for loving palm and i’ll raise my eyes now to your dark, warm gaze and make this solemn vow of love, to love you now, tomorrow, and forver, I do. 3:37pm/1dec98 - --- "I want to live bravely and love without fear I want always to feel the wings of grace near" ~Jewel hp - http://www.angelfire.com/ok/naomisplace/index.html uin# 10320204 aim - kilumdra irc dalnet - kilumdra ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 01 Dec 1998 19:11:29 -0500 From: "Seth D. Fulmer" Subject: ET: a poem I started a few days ago and finished now Ok...This effect has lessened since I started the poem but it's still here a little bit. Read the poem and I think you'll get what I'm feeling. Here's some background info/synopsis...Sunday night, Melissa gave me a picture of herself in her halloween costume and she was telling me she doesn't usually look like that and that she was ugly and stuff and I just told her she couldn't possibly be ugly and all. Now that I saw the picture though...I'm finding my fantasy of her physical appearance has been shattered and I was for a while having problems keeping the feeling I had. I can't figure out why that is having such a big effect over me cuz I liked her in the first place for her emotion but lately she's been really snotty, blunt, short, rude, etc.(no need to tell me the 3 letter syndrome starting with P and ending with MS) and that, combined with that I know what she looks like...isn't helping too much. Anyhow...here's the poem. I don't dare give this to her, cuz I care for her as a friend and it would be totally rude.... - ---------------- Shattered Illusions by Seth D. Fulmer 11/30/98 I once knew a girl so kind, so beautiful so rich in appearance as sweet as a rosebush She ran through my heart She swam through my soul From one end to the other She created my funeral And then came the day I saw what she looked like So unattractively sexy so cute but so ugly I thought I might puke but then I thought back If I abandon her now What kind of jerk have I been? When I met her I loved the very sound of her name the way she was nice to me no matter what I did my looks didn't matter my personality didn't bother She let me infuse her with babbling and raving But now that I know her appearance says all How can I love her She looks like a dog She acts oh so nice and let's me cry till I'm done but with one look in her eyes I can not smile but instead run Seth Fulmer mailto:usfulmer@mcs.drexel.edu mailto:st96t879@post.drexel.edu mailto:kaosking@voicenet.com webpages: http://www.voicenet.com/~kaosking Cool Quotes and stuff :) "I used to know you...But not anymore...Your substance has been subtracted...Word by word" - -Jewel "Carnivore" ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 1 Dec 1998 20:11:40 -0800 From: moonsong@ix.netcom.com (Charlie, Andalite, & The Goddess) Subject: ET: spirit & song OMIGOD I LOVE JEWEL'S NEW CD now that that's out with, 'enter from the east' might be the most beautiful song i've ever heard, 'hands' too, and 'kiss the flame' is wonderful! wow. whoah. okay, so also, i wrote a new song, and here it is.
