Why, I love the Hungry Ghosts! I've written poetry according to the song as well, and I declare from personal standpoint that it makes good inspiration.
You've captured the state of emotion the song glimpses very well, though in a different notion. Ghosts have a strange predicament, acknowledging their existence yet watching as reality shifts forward without them, and I couldn't have thought of a better way to express it than self-hatred. It shows in your words, the attempts to escape our bodies through whiskey, drugs and cigarettes. Self-destruction is such a pretty little thing. I especially liked your ghost people metaphor, hollow husks without a soul within.
"Pouring shot ampuls of indigo madness" - a brilliant image in a brilliant poem! I really enjoyed the vocabulary in this piece. You paint an unforgettable picture with your words. Thank you for sharing!

So thrilled you enjoyed this one, thanks Rita, and thanks for stopping by my page, much appreciated.
The darkness of Frieda emerges. I like the feel and the energy of this poem... almost spooky. As I've said before, your range has no limits. Always a pleasure to see new requests from you and always satiated.

You read me, I think we're cut from the same cloth in more ways than one Cyn...thanks so much.
Haunting, like sitting in an empty room in an abandoned house on top of a lonely hill with frail vegetation, looking out at the gloomy day.. oh how the mind can take disturbed self away from such a place to create such eccentric thoughts.. brilliant I love the music, what's the music called?

The thing that sets you apart dear poetess is the uniqueness in your style and powerful diction but above all there is an aura of sorts that I'm still trying to see through . Like I said you bring a divine dimension to WC and transcend boudaries let alone cultures. Keep shining as always ...:)
