Life beyond stone
Outside, the world
Inside, alone

Inside this castle

Outside, the morning
Glows green and gold

why this makes sense? easy, it's effecient poetry.

I'm not a fan of visualisations with poetry. Poetry should be universal, the reader should be able to create his own castle, with his own light, his own feeling of lonelines and his own colors....

When you submit a poem with a picture, you disallow the readers that extra dimension. Poetry with a capital P turns in to poetry....

I love this, and this gets a place in my favorites
