When Muses Say Goodbye, Poetry by Robyn Lawson

Right there in his hands
He’d held the light, finally
Rescue imminent

Genre: Failed Redemption 

When Muses Say Goodbye by Robyn Lawson

Right there in his hands
He’d held the light, finally
Rescue imminent
RISE, love cried loudly
Please don’t shout so, he bemoaned
I’ll just fall down
Swampy Sirens crooned
Songs full of stale, trite intrigue
Their shadows, now home
Angels cried, silence
Hush all those false noises, Shh
It’s up to you now

About Poetry, Poetry by lars blichfeldt

Genre: Life, Society

About Poetry by lars blichfeldt

I used to love hating poetry. Written by those who failed living the expected life themselves. Now wrapping up words in riddles and fancy glitter. To attain the unattainable. Narcissistic socialists breathing the universe while reminding the masses to be satisfied just looking at the sun. I did. I looked at the sun. Astonishing... Perhaps i was wrong. Perhaps i was the failure. I started writing. It felt refreshing. Pats on the back, Polite comments and praises. I was seduced. Intoxicated by appreciation. Soon i would be the lump of coal. transforming into a diamond. The winning ticket. The one in a million. Flawless. Unique. Without practice. Without effort. A unicum. This 'new' me.. A thinker.. A writer.. A word wrapper.. A poet.. What i loved to hate, I now hated to love. Thinking like a child. Naive like a child…

BURNING TEARS, Poetry by Lesang Sedibe

Genre: Sad

BURNING TEARS

by Lesang Sedibe

Have you ever felt so cold inside
What about the the burn that rushes within every part of the body
Are you feeling colds and burns mingling without mercy of how it hurts
Burning tears running a mile dragging the skin line of your face
It can’t be stopped until that memory is gone…forever gone
Everything break lose
The heart faints because it can’t handle no more
The eyes can’t hold on…tears needs a way out
Everything burn like a horrible dream

Have you ever felt the burn that won’t stop ’til the memory is gone?
It makes my eyes breakdown with burning tears
Tears that takes away the surviving heart I had
Do you understand what I’m going through…
Have you ever felt what I’m going through…
Did you survive what I’m going through…
Cause I don’t understand but I’m feeling and surviving

Movie Review of the short poetry film “Hammer”

festreviews's avatarFestival Reviews

“Hammer” played at the WILDsound FEEDBACK Film Festival, part of its October 2015 best of horror/thriller short films from around the word event. 

First off, watch the Poetry Film NOW:

Read Movie Review of HAMMER by Amanda Lomonaco:

While Hammer lacked a lot of the excitement and action that went along with the other films of the night, I still can’t deny how interesting the concept was. Like all experimental films, there will probably be a strong love/hate split between anyone who see sthis film, but I’ve always been a big proponent of experimental filmmaking.

Pushing the boundaries of any medium is incredibly important to highlighting and understanding its limitations, as well as helping us understand our own psyche. That might seem like a bit of a snobbish reason to justify experimental films, which can be pretty snobbish themselves sometimes, but its something many people don’t consider. Our reactions to…
