Some of these poems are from my young teens when I wrote alot trying to explore and escape the black place that was my mind then. Thankfully i ended up a reasonably balanced adult, delighted to find that i didn't have to be living in despair to write.
I love Blake, Spenser, Byron and Tennyson but even more i love reading all the great work you guys put out there. Thanks for taking the time to come see me, dropp me a line.
The oracle spilt its parables.
Flung from lips of lucidity,
fragments fell into the aether
and merged with fleeting images

as i dangle on this rope?

that they would find you irresistible.
One after the other, or several at a time

from all the congratulatory pats.
Bestowed by those who wouldn't have
acknowledged me in the street before,
...
DEATH is....
* to some a torment, spent in hells eternal night
to some a relief, the weary soul taking flight
...
