      Feedback/Poem/Please?

      So, I wrote this spur of the moment a few months back while I was sitting on my porch. The first line just came to me after a series of thoughts about the world ran through my head. It's the first poem I've written where I still feel what I wrote and how I felt at the time. It means something to me and I just wanted to see what you guys thought about it before I try to send it off. Any kind of feedback would be nice, talk all the sh^t you want, lol. Thanks in advance.



      The End of the World

      we're at the end of the world
      nothing could be better
      the trees have all died
      and we're just sitting around
      in the better place of our mind
      trying to figure out what was so important
      about all the things we left behind


      the grass has turned it's gray
      the sky slowly fading
      we light the fire of our heart
      to keep what's left warm
      who were we to think
      time and gravity were friends
      gravity holds us down
      time holds the door


      we stand to dance
      around the spiritual fire
      that held us together so long
      and it's true we're at the end
      the world has stopped spinning
      around in a circle we dance
      through all of our experience
      smiling all the while

      This isn't bad, it's pretty good I think. I found some of it a bit wordy, for example "about all the things we left behind" would sound better as "about all we left behind" to me, but that might just be my preference. I've read some famous poems that sound too 'wordy' to me but which are obviously good or they wouldn't be famous. So keep up the good work, it seems you have natural talent.

      Thanks, I like the suggestion. I'll have to try it out and see how it works. I hadn't gone through it when I put in on here, just copy and pasted. My teachers were always warning me about that. I do tend to make too much out of what I'm saying, lol. I really appreciate the feedback. =)
