The Architect MAG
April 5, 2009
Take everything I have ever made and run it through me. Let me soak up
every bitter emotion. Let's pray I make it to the hospital, so as doctors and
nurses “tsk” and task I can discover that I don't want to be
stitched back up, I don't want to be saved. No.
I want to be made into
an example.
“Look” they will say,
“Come see.”
“Look.”
“Come see.”

This is a beautiful and sophisticated piece. Keep it up. You have a gift.
I had to comment. This piece is incredible. There is so much to discover within the few lines which take my mind beyond the furthest reaches of the galaxy. There, in that place, I am satisfied; thank you. I would greatly appreciate any critiques on my work.

After I read it again i smiled a little, only because it reminded me of seeing a dead humans body parts, and i just though about who belonged to those parts... But this is really good I totally get it (i hope)

rofl that's too funny and ik whatcha mean! thanks for recomending it btw:P it is very interesting....
yeah it's dark. "every bitter emotion"-dark but funny. maybe if you saw my work you'd get my sense of humor. even reading it again now- I think the depressing part is whats so funny. perhaps I have a drk sense of humor. like if you said-dont save me. just let me sit here and rot into a million peices. to me that's funny. I guess cause of the sarcastic tone to it.
I wasn't laughng because it was funny-(because it's not funny) I was laughing because I was amused at how awesome the poem is and how much it hit home. even reading it now- the first few lines make me bust out laughing. it could just be my personal reaction. I've been told I'm a bit weird. actually it is kind of funny.
