Seeing world through glass poems<br />

T hat one tempered glass<br />

T inged yellow from the streaks of sunlight<br />

T he gold rays rest on my back<br />

But most poems release poems<br />

Ideas that the world could never be<br />

T hat the glass that the world is standing on<br />

Is shattering<br />

And people one following down<br />

Down<br />

-Penny Hashagen<br />

Down<br />

Into nothing<br />

Once the glass broke so we exchanged it for the next best thing<br />

Plastic<br />

It can carry<br />

T he weight of one<br />

One?s burdened down life<br />

One?s tear drops heavy like<br />

Rain falling from the sky<br />

Hold On!<br />

Hold On!<br />

Yet plastic can't carry<br />

Two lovers<br />

Hands must break<br />

As plastic splinters<br />

-Ashley Rose<br />

Your love<br />

?Hold your hand through plastic now, do I think she's crashing out?<br />

So one by one we shatter glass, and splinter plastic as we part<br />

With everyday that pass me by we wonder what could by strong enough to hold our pride<br />

-Anonymous<br />
