was Blind now i SeeA Poem by RuseInex
I lost my lampstand
followed it to the edge of a texas midnight stream collapsed at the base of a gnarled tree scratched ’n clawed at its roots seeking my twisted mind entwined felt for it it in this subterranean base entangled placed beneath the humid earth i lost my lampstand sought the key a firefly floated hung over my eye n’ led to find my bloodied corpse near edge of mocking brook to my second death I nearly fell in a waiting sinkhole both of them berated me refused to cleanse my soul i stumbled o’er barren soil that led to desolate desert where the rocks taunted me and skinned my stumbling shins came upon the midnight midst where shadows phantom grey shimmered red in a sea of rusting lanterns lay i smelled the thoughts of ghouls whose bony clutches reached then beyond and with the light of billion quasars shone he have me back my lamp a son of man stood bloodied in the center of the universe his words stamped upon the face of he who took my light the son of man stood in dazzling light with substance’ truth verily clothed surrounded by countless ones platinum rays, pearled pillars, precious chorus singing he gave me back my lamp he gave me back his lamp © 2015 RuseInex |
