Dreary Mornings

Ramblings. Unedited.

Midnight swallowed 

overweening pride, unbidden, 

in all its hollowness,

as worthlessness dug up 

a permanent hole 

around the edges of 

dreary mornings.

I love the first verse especially. Restless midnights always bring out the prideful s**t that's swirling in the back of one's evil mind, when we're not awake enuf to filter out our own ugliness (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Well, I won't deny that I'm quite egoistic and prideful at times, but there are moments when it just gets down to dust which is what brought about this piece.
Thank you so much for appreciating and your words, BG. Always love reading your reviews. x

' .. as worthlessness dug up a permanent - hole around the edges - of dreary mornings.'

Those words say far, far more than their letters, Yumna. They near give brilliance to the moods of those mornings.

Thank you so much for your words here, Emma. Been having rough days lately so haven't been around much :x Hope you've been well.

So sorry to read that, Yumna. Sometimes writing helps with problems, other times, tis only time that finds answers. You know you can make contact if you want.

Well this is all the wretched... But YUM.... you should take pride in these lines dear heart and fill those chasms of calamity with a few spoonfuls of that that and take to loves and call them in the morning. This is doctor bunny's prescription :)

[Dr. YumnaKay]

Ah I wish I could say your prescription worked but sometimes it doesn't work that way, sadly...

Thank you so much for reading and your empathetic words, my friend. Truly appreciated.

oh dear I am so sorry

[John Alexander McFadyen]

A deeply sad piece as the protagonist has sleepless nights and still faces the morning feeling worthless. A short piece with impacr and such pathos.

[Dr. YumnaKay]

That feeling just keeps persisting...
Thank you so much for reading and your words here, John. Appreciated.
