The Devil's Deja Vu

The Devil's Deja Vu

A Poem by The Rock And Roll Cowboy(REBEL WITH A CAUSE)
"

Inspired by the song "Falling Into You" by Sebastian Bach

"

  

Twisting my mind

Till thoughts in my head

Become so distorted

That right and wrong

Collide like Armageddon.

 

Peeling away my soul

Layer by layer

So that I feel so shallow

I can’t even recognize

My reflection in the water.

 

Gripping my heart

So tight that all feelings

Seep onto the floor

Into the porthole of hell

Burning like a Holy sacrifice.

 

Once again I am caught

In the devil’s déjà vu

Confirming my legacy.

The Devvil made me do it, :)! Seriously, it's an interesting piece and I think we can all relate a bit. There are times when we feel like we have all been down this road before, yet we still don't know what choices we should make. It can all be so very frustrating and confusing and maddening. You are very descriptive in this piece and it makes it easy for me to envision the words as little scenes in my mind. Thanks for the great write.

You do this type of write so well, Dale. The imagery always blows me away. I love that you're featuring things from back before I knew you...gives me a chance to really sink my teeth into your history as a writer. Well done, and thank you for reposting this.

Oh yes we must always battle on... as long as one heart still believes hope is never really gone.

This is a great poem, but I can also feel your sadness here. Your words
wrap around each other, pulling in, a sacrificial testiment of your emotions.
The flow is very good, and they reflect dark, torrid images. AD

It's better to be dead and cool than alive and uncool
