The Dark Pool
Michael W Miller

 
  the dark pool
swallows the fool
and as he sinks beneath the
black water it reminds him of
his tears he cried in his
sarrows for the endless trail of
empty tommrows,for the feeling
of hope fleeting, only death
will he be greeting,the water
like the lies he has heard
suffocates him now, he thinks"is
escape from this fate possible?"
"how?" for the people who called
him "dumb" he now feels his body
go numb, now he is breathless
and, in the water he hangs
lifeless, in the water hangs the
fool he has been swallowed by
the dark pool

 

READER'S REVIEWS (16)
DISCLAIMER: STORYMANIA DOES NOT PROVIDE AND IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR REVIEWS. ALL REVIEWS ARE PROVIDED BY NON-ASSOCIATED VISITORS, REGARDLESS OF THE WAY THEY CALL THEMSELVES.

"Good enough to be considered for a spot on my collaboration "Train of Thought" project, that is as long as you can write dark and profound narrative poetry about trains." -- EC Allen.
"Oh, there he ^ goes again, touting his story project to every half-decent author he comes across. By the way Mike, loved the sense of dark drowning." -- The Cheerleader, Tyna Aberdeen.
"Come on Tyna, cut me some slack! :-) If I don't advertise, how else is anyone going to know that it even exists. And I just want everyone to know that they're welcome to try a hand at my project, after all they've got nothing to lose, and if the story gets published, they've gained something (financially and ego speaking) without too much effort. I'm just taking up the challenge that the Advisor gave us, about creating a plot, and seeing what the different writers here can do with using the same plot. I've even went one step further by giving them a "story starter". In fact from what I've seen of your work Tyna, I think you'd be a perfect one to participate, unless such a challenge scares you. :-)" -- EC Allen.
"The Advisor, who's that? I can't find him/her? anywhere on this board." -- The Cheerleader, Tyna Aberdeen.
"Arghh! No wonder why you can't find it. The Advisor isn't a who, but a what. Look to the left-hand side of the Storymania screen, and you'll see it listed in the column as on of the categories. Back in October of last year the Advisor said they might run a contest, but have yet to do so. Thus I took it as a personal challenge to launch a similar contest for them, which I'm still working on. Like I said Tyna, you or anyone else who wants to is more than welcome to try out, once I do have it posted here. I believe the interest in such a contest is there, and hopefully when I post it, I'll be proven correctly." -- EC Allen.
"I consider you a trusted friend and ally Allen, but if you continue to ruffle thy lady's feathers, I shall have to crush your skull." -- Gorell the Slayer, East Fallow, Mortaban, Polayasa.
"Whoa there big fella, I didn't mean anything by it, and I have no quarrel with you." -- EC Allen.
"You've been rumbled EC, I know that Dick Koss, Mark Herner, Bennett Simms, and you are really the same person." -- Son of Tyrant.
"What? Who is this idiot anyway? Yes it's true, that my real name is Jerry George, which I'd appreciate if no one used, but I am "not" Mr. Herner, Bennett Sims a.k.a. Tyrant, and Mr. Koss. If I were I'd be one of the most prolific authors of all time, and although the work of these three guys is very good in three very different ways, it would be wrong of me to take credit for it. Next thing you know this Son of Tyrant will be accrediting me for everything from authors Adagio to Zachary." -- EC Allen.
"Why don't you rejects get a life, and stop wasting space that could actually be used for reviews." -- Guardian Against Useless Chatter.
"Hey thar Michael, well boy ya say ya want reviews from "oeople". Well, not two manya them oeoples runnin aroun hare, but yer in luck, cuz I am a oeople. Well man, I luved this soos much that I wrote a song abouts it. Hare it goes: "Oh drownin in my tears! Stop the truck, in the road I sees a deer! I donta like my bruther-in-law cuz I thinks he's queer! Cuz he likes to do guyz up the rear!"" -- No Name Rogers.
"look i said i wanted people to review my work not argue with each other on my review page,thats what chat rooms are for!!!!!! that song is xtremley obscene" -- michael miller, mechanicsville, maryland, usa.
"look i said i wanted people to review my work not argue with each other on my review page,thats what chat rooms are for!!!!!! that song is xtremley obscene" -- michael miller, mechanicsville, maryland, usa.
"Michael, on behalf of all the other idiots on this board, I'd like to personally apologize to you. I'm afraid I let myself get dragged into the muck, but I was being attacked from all sides. I promise though it won't happen again in your review section or anyone else's for that matter, no matter what nasty things they say about me. I read what you and the Guardian Against Useless Chatter wrote, and I humbly agree. So the last thing I'll say, is the first thing I said, and that it was tastefully done." -- EC Allen.
"Seems that all the controversy on your reviews section got you noticed by me. It intrigued me to look at your poem. And it was GREAT. Good work. Keep it up. As for the people who were quarrelling in these reviews...we are here to critisize eachother's WORK... not eachother." -- Christy Mack.
"I was also lured in by the controversy on your reviews section. I read your poem and thought it was GREAT. Keep up the good work! " -- Shane Cupp, Shinnston, WV.
