Let's all write!

[ayoub]

Give me a line to start a poem with, but, the deal you make, is to write another poem in response, taking the last line from mine as your first line.

Be brave... writing doesn't hurt a bit...

Life or death at your whim
you spin the thread 'round
fingers tense, stretch it taut,
a cats craddle of consciousness
caught, and pulled painfully
like hair from your head, one
by one, threads snapping
until you're hanging,
desperate to hold on
to one thin strand

to one thin strand
that holds me aloft
to many more
that are lowered
each one a hand
of a caring friend
a spirit who recognises
a long lost brother

And now I must go take a midterm

a long lost brother wraps
an arm, around her
comforting? she supposes
this stranger thinks he feels
what she feels, seeping
through her skin where they touch,
two forms colliding violently
in his lips, gentle
upon her brow, hand
moving down her back-
"it'll be okay," her eyes
shoot poison arrows sinking
her head in to his shoulder
"thanks,"
silently, she screams
