A tsunami of dark poetry

A tsunami of dark poetry,

I need a roar of noise

to deafen silence

to deaden thought

to drag me through the blues

of day,

into some kind of light of night

and life is like a lion's mane

a blood   -   matted Samson's crown

and shorn     and weak,

and feeling lost and new born,

D.O.A.

missing some kind of tether/ rope /

                          anchor,

needing more than gravity

     to keep the feel of dirt beneath feet

feeling dying stars calling me home, 

a billion years in waiting

     and the slip     -     and the slide

the slow death whisky blues

and Arachnid gods

tangle me in their weft and  weave

and life vibrations bring death and delight

     enter sandman 

         exit stage right,

high voltage rock 'n roll makes

the universe disintegrate    -

                                          for a while,

Yes, for awhile...for as long as the song plays...and then back into the darkness alone.
I have had enough Delilah's in my time...
Lucky I have any hair left at all...or any strength of heart.
These last two pieces of yours are fantastic, gram.
and so relatable...

I've been writing a book these past 6 weeks & you describe how I feel when I take a deep dive like this, everything imaginary swirling around my head & my world all the time, while whatever's "out there" (in the real world) disappears for me. You use such original, lively, descriptive words & phrases . . . always impressed by that! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
