He Loved Her...
Can't speak yet she hasn't forgotten how to think Can't feel yet she still knows what is real Cornered she just cowers Tallying the hours until she's free Struggling in darkness to find the key's grace That will relieve her from this suffocating embrace

We'z Walking on a Path Ruled By Numbers
This road has felt endless, yet limited; every step tracked. Inching away along this path, I feel trapped. Confined. Left to this narrow passage that may one day amount to something greater. Time is not a concept. Only distance. From start to finish, I laugh and cry and attempt to convince myself that this is worth it. I cannot stray. I must keep going. Every step etched, is a step taken, is measured as more than before. I cannot even recall how I got here. Maybe I donβt even really exist. Just another tick marking off a perceived presence. Of what though? I am just another line drawn. Nothing more, nothing less.

Some might say "a bookmark's life" instead of "a dog's life" if given to this line of reasoning. I, for one, think it might be wonderful, except when it comes time to turn the (proverbial) page.
Nicely done!
Like Daphsam said...depends on the book...but I can think of worse things to do than get lost in a book. Loved this entry, Mike! Well done and any excuse for some King Crimson is always good! :)
Well, it depends if you like the book or not, this was really clever!
I loved it! I used to read books when I had more time, but never so many that I would've needed a lot of bookmarks. Yet I made a bunch of them!π
Wow, what an expression of accepting and managing life in just three phrases. No, it would not be so bad because we might learn new chapters of the book, which are more beautiful. Many kinds of possibilities are there. Maybe we could find a page with difficult words. We can also find the initial page after some exposure to different pages of the book. Wonderful writing
Oooo, I love the deeper meaning that this has! Brilliant work!
Love it, Bookmarks are certainly important to readers. Itβs also better earmarking a book. πΌExcellent example of a Senryu. Poetry
