Been meaning to put these up for a while. From spring quarter.



After-death
Johann Holter-Mehren

Life is the end
Death is the beginging
A soul is the stars
The stars are the universe
The universe is a river
A river of souls is time
Time is everlasting

Life
Johann Holter-Mehren

The Apache sat down, tired, for you see
His game had run from him, flowed, like
Water in a stream

Now he would be un-able to feed his family
His lack of ability killing his people
But the game thriving

Time
By: Johann Holter-Mehren

Time lies
Time is deceitful

It tells you everything will be ok
It won’t

Time says it is infinite
It’s not

You won’t have enough time for anything

The font tearing around

What’s different?
Nothing

After #2
By: Johann Holter-Mehren

Life is the end
Death is the beginning
A soul is the stars
The stars are the universe
The universe is a river
A river of souls is time
Time is everlasting

Time is a thief
It lies, it slanders, it misinforms, it misaligns

A river of souls drowns those who swim in it

The universe is vast and unforgiving
And no-one can hear you when you scream

The stars are oh so blinding

Souls are blacked and dead

The beginning is near

Death is the end

Life is only the start

Rain
By: Johann Holter-Mehren

Rain pitter patters on green leaves
Boughs sag under the weight

Trunks bend in the wind
The creaky creaky can be heard

The rain falls
Drippity drip
From those green leaves
From those sagging boughs

Splash, splash on the undergrowth

Dream
By: Johann Holter-Mehren

A wisp of a thought developed in my head
Turning, twisting, twirling
Trying to escape from its prison

My secret passion slipped through my lips

Worming its way into her ear
My face reddened and my heart skipped a beat
She
S

Y
Turned her body to face me
A smile had formed on her lips

My secret hunger had been shared

The wisp had infected her
Taking my arms she
T

I
N

D
Us together
And we congealed as one

Hmmm, so the last one I can't get it to format right. The last bit should look like a wine glass. From "turned her body..." to the last line is a wine glass. Grr. Damn you lj. So those are then ones I did for class. 2 that have a little meaning that doesn't show in the poem. The life one for the most part. After is my fav. I love the second one, so wonderful. Then I've got few I did in class... I'll post those another time, little umm. Yeah.
