11. asphalt black dancing

white line winking
with the window rolled down
neon lights tapping of my brow
i float falling backwards into amber

2. There is a writer's forum

http://upload.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topics&forum=216

It can be found at the link. I hope you like what we have here in the poetry group and I encourage you to check in here with any poetry you might write. I'm sure I speak for more than a few when I say that we like to read as much as we write.

9. I'm sorry....

at first i didn't understand your post...the fire is a metaphor for hard times in my life...not a real fire...more like possessions lost thru life's misadventures...thank you for the sentiment...

14. I'm so sorry! What a loss! ;(

And there is a writer's group on DU, which appears to get a decent amount of traffic, but people post original poems here, as well.:-)
