poems of Frigidity: Marble Eyes

Marble Eyes Serenity entered the brothel of Vainglory. Wisdom went preaching to a needy crowd. Exuberance shaved bald for a leader. The sanctuary’s tumbling down. A fist could clang on the floral door But the sages will allow in no more. The temple rings with the errors of outside. The reeks of... Sign in to see full entry.

poems of Frigidity: Intimacy

poem: The Similarity

Wrap your arms about yourself Before your plummet into hell But the similarity Sings an ancient song The similarity… Is fond of words like ‘gone’. Copyright (c) 2008 Hollie Holmes. All Rights...

poem: Into the Marsh

Into the Marsh Heading backwards Most probably Back into the moss Into the marsh Backwards, unseen. Because cowardice returns All lost to me. Now what these things are I no longer desire to know.
