the main tip i could give you is just go do it!! don't procrastinate! lol. Just find a really cool cemetary, doesn't have to be all that old or anything, and take some shots of the landscaping (or lack of) and the tombstones, and experiment with different angles. Hope this helped. I'd love to see the outcome!

I agree with ghotieyes, it would have been awesome if you used those four lines as a hook to tie it all together, but great work.

I’ve been chewing on this all day, and I’ve finally figured out what I think about it. I like the poem and how portrayed you image with a breadth of emotions, thereby burying excuses and misconceptions. However, the last four lines should be the ones mentioned by the others who commented.

No threats here to taunt you
No screams here to haunt you
No hands to abuse you
No hearts to refuse you

These lines are like the chorus in a song, the instantly accessible thesis of what you are trying to say. The remaining lines are mostly redundant and seem a little forced.

All in all, excellent writing!

You have the same candid style you always have wich this timecontrasts with the subject...Although it's a message of hope, it's dark and tortured, or so I think.I like it....reminds of a state of mind i sometimes want to have but can't reach
