title suggestions please?

Prometheus' Swallows

It has a sadness of eternal loss and then there's torment in knowing that there will always be sorrow in that place (at least until the birds fly away).

interesting choice, champers - but i'm too childish and sniggering over the way that would look without the apostrophe. quite another title. :eek:
 
I'm thinking it should remain untitled due to the organic interpretation all nature of the poem!!

Ah I remember this one, made me sad when I read it.

this live write, subbed, seems to need a title. any offers?

tods already suggested 'set me free'


what's this? this dim, strange mood
suspended in ink and daub and charcoaled words
where words are thoughts and images primed to leap
right through the screen
right from a brain
fingertips midwive the pulse pulse pulse of half-forgotten frag
ments ripped and shorn dragged three-quarters blue for lack of
breath and weight of darkened soil upon a head
stones
stones
run a nail on through the happy moss
think
loss
but not the loss of living grief
this someplace feel i feel
unbereaved
and taking up my chalk i mark a tree
a bird's wing taking flight
the bird is me

All this talk and I've forgotten the poem. *goes to find*

*no title* no comments visible either is this a problem on my end?

There are no recent comments (9 older comments) - Click here to add a comment to this poem or Show more comments or Read All User Comments (9)

some of that will be as blue links.

what I meant is that the poem is symbiotic for each reader, it is written in such a way we fill in the blanks with our own emotions, if you add a tittle you change the function of the piece, i.e. you start to lead a reader in a certain direction, as the piece stands the "dim strange mood" that opens the poem can be, addiction, depression, loss of a partner, a death etc, etc

if i left it open enough for any of you to invest in it, by filling in the scenery (emotional or physical) and other details from your own heads, then i weighed the odds in my favour for people to like what was there - because they'd written parts of it themselves. :cool:

i kinda thought it funny, too, that i'd titled it but people thought i hadn't. :cattail:
