Excellent
Not yet exceptional. When the exceptional rating is reached this is highlighted
The body through anxiety

Separation

by Marion Issa

Beneath a frozen lake, the sun can pierce, yet drowned to darkness
 
Cyanide is sweet, bitter is the skin
 
A helicopter's whir can make the heart beat desolate
 
Glass refined to sand, all encompassing, dancing beneath skin
 
Torn apart, wasting, dry rocks petering water
 
Succumb to earth, fostering worms Trojan 
 
Silent whistles oscillate within wet chambers 
 
Breathe
 
Smog choking flames 
 
Glitter dispersed in oil
 
Avalanche shrouds skies, beckoning for snow
 
And again
 
Everlasting sand, gravity ceased, sound dissipates
 
Breathe
 
At last, air again

A Milestone Post


My writing style is quite vague because I like how interpretation can finish a piece. Seperation is the name, as a couple reasons, anxiety caused by seperation, a feeling of seperation from the world, the feeling of body parts all working separately. Some lines are directly referencing the body, while others are more abstract ideas of anxiety
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
