Who gives to the world, all of himself with heart unfurled...

Who gives to the night, his burning heart and solemn plight...

Who gives without bound, his passion breathing through sacred sound...

Who gives to each one, the firey depth of his burning sun...

Who gave his love to me, but in the end longed to be freed...

Who gave my wretched soul, a taste of light and hollow hole...

Who flies so far from reach, of trembling hands and hearts so weak...

Who gives a tiny damn, for me the foolish stubborn lamb....
A solemn poem spilled from me this morning

Ok random comment... but as drawing person, what would be the effect of doing the poem on papper and scanning it have? Does the feeling of the words change if they are created diffently? Youve used to computer to incourage people to read the poem in a certain way would there be more freedom to do this by hand and experment more? Prehaps even the type of papper and the way in which the words are produced (what type of pen etc) has an effect on the feel of the over all piece. Might not work at all, but might be fun to try heh.
