Book Of Spells

I just write the s**t, its up to you to perceive it. 

The mystery's the pain, i'm just the machine to relieve it. 

Run in place like Scooby, these ghosts i Doo be believing.

Sail the ocean blue, sailors tails, the Krackens once again feeding.

If you only truly knew, the resistance I long ago defeated

Words that never again will ever be repeated.

Like a chant it stirs the cauldron and awakens the demons.

So in a safe place, I placed in a safe, the manuscripts hoping they will never be needed.

I stood over the flame watching as my hand began bleeding.

A sacrifice to the gods, yeah the ones I don't believe in...

Blitzed, This is breathtaking. So much feeling and raw intense wordplay makes this short piece read like a much longer ode. Each line is filled with emotion and has its own point; when this happens a poem can end up disjointed and a mess. But your lines react off of one another like atoms colliding...culminating in the perfect ending line, "A sacrifice to the gods, yeah the ones I don't believe in..." This is going into my library favorites, so thank you for that. take care...dan

The god of writing is a joker. Can trick us.

I believe we must be mad to write. Best writers went to war and dangerous places. Mad-men made the best writers. I liked this poem. Made me think tonight.

I dig the opening line. "I just write this s**t." I feel the same way. I just write s**t hoping someone might get it. Reaching out to whoever might feel the same way. Great poem.
