Rhythm and Rhyme. Poetry and Time.

Inhale, feel the surrounding.
The echo.
The flow of... sound.

The amphitheater, the place I felt most comfortable in the world (though I might have mentioned this before), everything... seemed almost drawn in front of me. I could visualize it in my head. I lean back, and rest my hands on the cool soft marble railing behind me.
...
Inhale again.
I shake my hands at my sides, loosening myself out in preparation.

"I was..."
A pause. Glancing around for the unseeable crowd.
Is anyone here? I can hear the empty stands.
Let's begin again.

"I was a child confused,
And used to being used,
And used to being used
by you..."
I trail off at the end, unsure of my poem's ending.

I walk to the door silently, being lead by the poetry. It was good. I knew that for sure. When I see the boy who was making the poem. He was older. I take step behind, he would see me and that for sure make me nervus. I hear the snap of the twig behind me. No! I didn't move, I was to nervus.

A faint cracking sound drags me out of my thoughts, "Is... Is anyone there?" I ask nervously. It could have just been... I dunno, some tree or something.
But, it could also be a person.

If it was... I dunno, was there always some sort of high likeliness for people to walk in on me singing or reciting poetry or... Well, I mean... Doing something kinda embarrassing?

I shift my weight. Should I say yes or no? This time that is the question, I think. " Mabe?" I say quitely.

Abel entered the amphitheater, hearing the sounds of voices and poetry. Grinning to himself, and thinking of his dad, he composed a haiku.
Haiku's are awesome
But sometimes don't make sense
Refrigerator.

Afraid of him looking my way I step half behind the door jam. " I like yur poeam. You are good." I say. I could feel myself reterting back to my acsent. It kept getting thicker and thicker and at the rate it was going it would to be so thick no one would understand me. Not that any one want's to hear what a seven year old has to say. They think we don't know what we are talking about. They where probilby right most of the time.

A petite voice calls out to me from the amphitheater entrance. I feel myself sigh in relief. It's just a little kid... I mean, not that kids are any less valuable what with them being the future of the world and all. But it's just like... Kids don't have any preconceptions or none of that business, you know? I don't have to work to impress a kid.

"Oh, umm... thanks!" I smile in the direction of the voice, "I'm not great or anything, but I mean, I guess I'm not bad. You into poetry?"

" A little bit. Poeams are used to make songs that have sweet music to them." I say coming out a tiny bit. I cock my head to the right a little. He seemed nice enogh but still it could be a trick. A mask.

"Thanks!" I take a step towards the entrance, "I like to sing too, but I'm not great at that either... I mean, I'm okay at it, just like with poetry. It's just that... err... comparable to my sibs, you know?"

" I don't sing at all. I just play music." I wisper. I look at his face. He was walking my way. I duck behind the door jam again.

I turn to the irritated vioce. I stared at him a little scared.

Abel Stepped in front of him. "Woah there buddy. She's just a kid. You're disturbing her. Think about inner peace dude." In retrospect, he thought he kinda sounded like a surfer hippie, but oh well.

" He's ook." I blurt.

I hear several other voices echoing around the stands of this amphitheater. Starting to feel... a little uncomfortable. I cough a bit uncomfortably, "Music's cool.... uhhh..."

Guest

I look towards the voice "I know, right?" I grinned approvingly and extended a hand. "Abel."

" Scared. What would make yoo thinke I was scared?' I say quickly. Then I turn to the older boy who I had started talking to. "I'm sorey but I dew not know your name? I'm Nava." I say

"Fine if no one wants me here ill just leave!" I say trying not to raise my voice but i do of course.

"Oh... Ummm, I'm Terry Veilance," I smile and wave, trying not to seem rude. "It's nice to meet you Nava and Abel."
(Errr... I probably sounded way to formal there)

I hear a rage filled voice resonate within the amphitheater and cringe. Sometimes the whole "improved senses" thing was handy you know, cause I'm blind and all. But, like... when some guy starts yelling in an amphitheater, a structure that's designed to heighten sound. Man, that's really a pain.

Terry, Why in the gods names does that sound fimilar?, I think. Mabe I had met him before, No impossible. Then it dawned on me. " You know my sister, Ziva." I say just now getting the fact wrapped around my little mind.

Admin Posts : 1104 Join date : 2009-10-27 Age : 30

"Ziva's your sister?" I regurgitated, "Well... I guess there are only so many gods... and I mean, we're all kinda related."
My ears were still ringing from that... Uhhh, well I don't know his name, but this yelling guy's... errr yelling. I shook my head, trying to stop the ringing.
"So is she like, a god parent sibling, or... uhhh... a mortal parent siblings?"

I appeared in the Amphitheater, bored.

Subject: Re: Rhythm and Rhyme. Poetry and Time. Sat May 22, 2010 11:24 pm

" Full siblings." I say. " She can be mean and rude to some but better her than my step brother Ares and no he is not the go." I say
