A Poem by Raven Starhawk

1:13pm

Regenerate morals long lost to dragons

Yet a demon resumes exhibiting incorporated fabrications

Head hung as silence grips my atmosphere

I glower at black keys


1:14pm

Father devoured by cerebral malady

I wish I knew thee


1:15pm

Pulling teeth

Blood

The hum of the modem is my lullaby


1:16pm

Time atrophies in electronic clicks and clacks      

Tomorrow is so distant

Impossible to reach


1:17pm

Gun pressed to my temple

Voices continue to digest me

Make them stop

All desires are void


1:18pm

Gunshot

A spine-chilling write.

Sometimes celebral maladies just prove too deadly to be overcome!

It is very dark... I like how you've described 'silence' throughout this poem :)

Raven, I"ve stated before and I shall repeat, you take the darkest of dark and bring light to it, I believe it aides in our witnessing of what fatality can bring, giving a change to change course, if we feel the darkness there's always a chance to renew and fall into the light. I love your creative mind. Excellent. A most brilliant and clever structure as well. Hugs
