Reflection EvokeA Poem by Sanctuary DementiaGround is shaking; air has lost control Waves are breaking over mountains cowl Hiding darkness in shifting violence turned charcoal Monsters sleeping now awakening as wolves howl One step forward and three steps back; eyes are watching What do they see when they look at her? Judging everything, cant look at themselves; knees are buckling No words spoken, how can they crucify with such error? Laughing taunts they refuse to see a figure breathing misery Loneliness in silence, bees sting in measured words Cold bitter winds of their hatred; self definition possessed beastly Running away to hide in kingdoms, mocking eyes stalk wounded leopard Fight to free self from endless struggle in life, how far should I go? Refusal to be monstrous in disguise, free me from the way they behave Should of skin I honor with wounds, or upon my heart this curse bestow? Fighting my way through, cant take any more, congressman of paper did waive No need for people so cruel, just warmth and respect, is that a problem? Im afraid I cant explain my eccentric desire to destroy myself in fire Needing a world free from feeling, the beginning of winter in autumn The monsters fight together to turn my eyes; whispers do conspire Running away from the world to be free of them, life so cold and empty Pressure against lips, the sleeping wakeful nightmare shattered in his eyes No need to keep running, time to make a stand, jingle in the dance of gypsy The flames burn deeper towards our goals, our needs; we have the supplies. © 2011 Sanctuary Dementia |
