My name is Polly and i have been writing on and off, frequently and infrequently since i was about 8/9- totally dependent upon how i feel about life. The good times i’m too busy living life to write about it, owing to this much of my poetry is ignited from burning questions or long periods of confusion that torture my conscience. I’m a student at the University of Newcastle Upon Tyne, studying Sociology and anyone in the area intersted in setting up a poetry club, or knows of one please contact me, as i think poetry only really comes alive when one has an audience to witness it… otherwise the words are nothing more than thoughts that pass us by…. have a read, and i will do my best to read yours too.

I could pretend, as I have done before -and shall do again That I do not mind, that it is her eyes you look to -And not mine I could deny, that it aches that you don’t bleed - my warn heart But I wont, I will wait. The anger rising bitter inside Until the nausea sets in and I vomit all my hearts secrets With a violent tongue.

Poetry / Idle Sack Days

Dizzy with the doubts of lost opportunity My stomach swells, the nausea rises- causing me to faint I can taste the threat of disease on my tongue And my head aches a dull thud, leaving me numb Waiting for this phase to end I dream of all my tomorrows I know in my heart, that they will too fool me But hope is the only virtue onto which I can pray To seize the day and takes my hours away- and let me sleep I kill too much time; I waste my days with laze My body is still, but my mind a fountain o...

I believe I woke up on the only side available to me I didn’t know it would define the stance I stand to be Some days cloud others are mellow And today I feel like a foolish fellow All the demons sent to haunt glare fear in my thought Should I have taken the other paths I once sought? My lover reflecting a stranger The air between us presenting danger Errands hang over me, drumming at my conscience The feeling of incompetence today is immense Minutes count the monotony That waste away before ...

It was sour: Bitter to the taste But it reminded her tongue how to feel It gathered to a greatness paralyzing her senses What was this tonic that had played her? Tormented by this taste she ran for him Uncovered the inside gunning at her heart Her cries echoed far into the night Only waking the dead and those who could not stay They still speak of the poison found on her lips That cold winter night; when she lay still Still, silent and stunned he played the pen at his will Taking the tonic th...

Haiku/Senryu / Uprooted
wow. very emotive and raw for such s short poem. The last line 'stripped of dignity' is very powerful. well done
Poetry / Domination
i liked this, because it invokes a sense of mystery, however i couldn't quite deciper the story behind the words... but it still touched me! (would you care to elaborate?)
Haiku/Senryu / A Cat Sits Watching
This reads a prologue to a novel- it acts a warning to the reader, despite the similie of the cat as a stone we're aware it is only a matter of time before the cat shall shall cast upon its prey. Short but sweet, nice.

Poetry / On Your Lips
Short, concise, thought invoking and extremely clever.. I like this. The way you talk about yourself on their lips is as if this is the way you see them viewing you and you are unsure as to how true thier perception is. " On your lips, are mine in wet detail The memories of another life so vaguely familiar… ," It almost sounds as if there is a secret nesstled somewhere behind those memories?
