middle eye vision (159 )

Ghosts

Humming, singing away

I catch a glimpse

Out the rear mirror

It’s my past

Speeding too close again

Coming like a tornado!

Nails bitten to the quick -

Bad dreams haunting

Fear’s forest in the night

Like a scene from

Some fairytale

Hansel and Gretel…

Searching for daylight

Not slowly!

I check in my side mirror

Prepare to switch lanes

A good smart manoeuvre

Must stay alert!

Be aware of storms ahead

My blind spots and…

Overtake danger!

	the trouble i find generally is that editors want something different from the public's tastes who want different from a fellow poet's idea of verse, i find it all a bit fickle, poetry by middle eye vision 25/07/12 (15:33) (report this comment)
	hi i've just used driving as a metaphor, i don't live in a time warp but find others from my past do and they want me to be the person i was 25 years ago and i find those people very disturbing, we all change at different speeds/gears by middle eye vision 25/07/12 (15:16) (report this comment)

Forward Poetry's ethos has always been to act as a bridge to publication rather than a barrier. This, along with our passion for poetry and creative writing, has seen a humble family business evolve into the biggest publisher of new poetry in the world. We understand that poetry is subjective, that everyone writes in a different style and that what one person can love, another can hate! Our collections showcase a variety of themes, writing styles and poets from all walks of life. They are carefully edited and compiled to celebrate and complement the craft that all of our contributors enjoy poetry.
