The faded tiles,
though jejune
and tarnished,
reflect back
the world above
with a surface
(swept clean)
of relentless
mica chips
as if they too
were afraid
to be naked.


Any input on this would be great. Thanks

for some reason this makes me think of the pyramids in peru; probably because of the mica reference; or was it calcite that they used? hmmm... anyways, I liked this, the short lines made me read it slow and absorb the words, and there weren't any cliches or anything to stumble over.... well done! :)

Liked this as well. No constructive critique, I'm in too peaceful state of mind right now...

It's got a nice blend of ee cummings and raymond souster. Both great poets. Write on!

Thanks guys. It has been a while since I last wrote anything. I am glad I still have a little spark of inspiration left in there. Autumn
