A blood less red

Was it hiding behind the curtains

ambushed with stain and ruptured


shuddering trees of grey wound


past three quarters a day


limbs akimbo of dead grudge


and assiduous pain, throbbing;


her blood a lesser red


diluted and suffered ...........

I like the way the words flow but can't seem to truly get the meaning :)

Hey Sj .... thanx man ....

well these verses have no specific meaning .... it's wht u wld hv felt after u had read it the first time ....

When I wrote it, it was abt a pain that was old, hidden some where a little diluted but still painful ..

I also felt it personified a wound thats not fresh .... a little old but the pain has yet not healed totally ...

One of frnd T told me it represented martyrs and the lady was the country in red .....

Another frnd R said it smelt of millitants and was scared for me ...

N said it seems to be of someone tired and sick of a long day in office ....

the reason for sharing these perspectives was that it meant different things to different people ..... its how they felt abt u .....

so wht was ur feeling??
