Hey, I'm new. Here's a taste of my work.

dormant hearts of the railway by sir nicholas schram

          t
            r
         a 
            i
          n
glides   along
           r
           a
           i 
           l
           s
and i sit in the corner, pallid or pale:
                                                                (my private box)
watching the world f  l  y      b  y

i see women
       lieing women
weeping their’s woes
		at each
		   STOP
   as their broken toys march aboard

i see trees
       rotting trees
whispering secrets
		with Death’s
		   breath
   as yellowing grandeur cascades from their faces

and i sigh
as each rose goes by
	for they are never mine;
	no such beauty for FiltHy
	      swine

but i hope
that my stop will soon be
and just for once
the doves will sing
for me

"This Community is not for posting your own personal work or your friends even if you have been published KNOWN PUBLISHED POETS. There are other poetry communities for personal poetry."

Just FYI.

You might want to delete this entry and repost the poem to, I dunno, [livejournal.com profile] write_away or [livejournal.com profile] heart_on or some community along those lines.

In addition to those mentioned by kvshwartz, [livejournal.com profile] poetry_guild is a fairly large community which welcomes original work, and provides a forum for discussing it with other poets.

While this doesn't belong here, I am obligated to try to recruit you in joining [livejournal.com profile] litsanon 'cause it's just that damn good.

Look forward to seeing your other favorite poets here, though, regardless ^.^
