tremors

kilcher -- i owe you this. :)

for those who know my multiply site, i've already posted this as a blog entry. since i haven't had much to write about except for beer, getting drunk, passing out, passing the boards and my crush already having a boyfriend, i figured that this poem would be a much better read than another rant or rave about my day. i think this is one of the best poems to describe the memory of love...

Tremors
Nerisa del Carmen Guevarra

Actually, what is left
Is a vague memory that I loved you.

You sit across me
And still my arms know the depth-feel
Of you, weight-density heavier
Than this silence.

Do not worry. They will not move
Like they used to.

Instruments like Geiger counters
Do not need to be in a crack
To feel a quake.

A single tremor multiplied
Can tell the greatest of rifts
Like now.

Across you, i finally understand

The Theory of Continental Drifts:
Ages ago, we were just one island
That had forgotten its shape.

You are Form 9, Vampire: The Undying.

"And The Vampire was all that remained on
the blood drowned creation. She attempted to
regrow life from the dead. But as she was
about to give the breath of life, she was
consumed in the flame of The Phoenix and the
cycle began again."

Some examples of the Vampire Form are Hades (Greek)
and Isis (Egyptian).
The Vampire is associated with the concept of
death, the number 9, and the element of fire.
Her sign is the eclipsed moon.
