Post subject:	First Published Poem
A few months ago I got my first poem published in a poetry anthology book. It's a pretty good poem that I really like, and I thought, hey, why not share it here: The Ways of Men The scarlet liquid of life and death Falls from thy dirtied blade Fight thou now in this gruesome war The war that thee hast made Surrounded thou art by thy enemy Enclosed by a living wall Wary thou must be at all times Careful, now! lest thou fall Thou hast slain many a good man Thou hast gained their ire Can thee blame their anger, their hatred That burns as a mad fire? And see! thy downfall came soon Once thou hast paused. Dost thou now regret this tragedy That thee hast caused? So, dost thou repent thy sinful deeds Dost thou regret thy lies? So we hope as thou see thy death Fall down upon thine eyes. Any comments/critique much appreciated!

Hey, I still got published by them. I just didn't buy the book XD No money wasted, so I am content with that. And I love writing, so I don't plan to stop. Indeed, here's another poem that is mine. I have dozens... hmm, I can just post one here and there ^^ Elements of Insanity By Ainu Laire 4/25/05 Darkness. It drowns your mind. Its dark tendrils weaving Throughout all your Thoughts. Fear. It burns your heart. Its choking grip Never letting you Escape. Sorrow. It tears your skin. Its mournful words Are breaking you Down. Pain. It covers your body. It leaves you cold and Lying naked in the Dark. Death. It eats your soul. Its lying whispers saying That you are to Blame. I blame angsty fan fic for that XDD
