definately an interesting read, kind of hard to tell what its about until the end, and i like that. it adds mystery.
i have two questions, what is Sanzu, and where did the inspiration for this come from? |

Well, this might be my first double post. I accidentally left a second comment on this thread. I just clicked on the wrong one. Now I'll go put the comment where it belongs

Wow. That's a pretty good poem. No real complaints, except I hardly understood what the heck it was about . _________________ When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.

Fire; a symbol of destruction, but also of advancement.
Dang, this was great. Man, I'm listening to Megadeth's "A Tout Le Monde," and it fits the mood well, especially the ending.

Thanks, everyone. Feels good, really .
Fire: I used it here as a symbol for purification.

Well done. Quite good. Though I must admit I wait in joyful hope for day four...  _________________ ...now that's some gritty shizzle.
