    I Did Not Move

    Something about losing it, I suppose.

    Poets are always taking the weather so personally. They're always sticking their emotions in things that have no emotions.

    SG, I like that this poem is sparse. In so little words you get across a sense of the lonely. Then at the end I wonder if a little madness is going on due to such isolation. I may be entirely off the mark so would you kindly fill me in?

    A gentle "losing it" and a sense of giving up caring anymore.

    I did not move;
    I did not try
    to stop it.
    I think you could lose the second "I"

    Thanks for the kind words, all. Silvermoon - yes, you hit the nail on the head.
