Digging Through the Archives II

As the previous post, these are old poems that were done back in 2002-3??  In their unaltered form.  Notice the lack of punctuation and the tight feeling to the lines.  I always got what I wanted out on the page first and then would add punctuation later...actually I'm still like that...

Purple Sea of Ignorance and Pain From You

The dark purple sea of long ago

Images fly past, blurry, unrecognizable

seasons turning, ever changing

Lives lost in the tide

The current driving their soul away

Captured by the purple sea

Victim to its pain, your pain, our pain

Succumb to the empty hollow

Screaming, bleeding, shaking, heart aching

Universally sane

misjudged apprehension

smoothed over pain

living outwardly dying inwardly

Same story same line

Everyone passing over

Forgetting the importance of self

You live for life, life waits for death, death waits for you.

screaming, bleeding, shaking.... 

Digging Through the Archives

I have an extremely old iBook laptop, it has to be at least 10 years old.  I found some old Word documents that I quickly transfered to my external hard drive.  Thought people might like the nice flash back.  I did this poem probably back around 2002-3 ?

In Dreams

Till the dream awakens,

falling, turning, spinning.

Down the dark way I came

are twisted creatures,

reaching out of the walls,

screaming at the damned

with restless appetites.

Can I wake from this restless dream?

A nightmare, it pulls at me.

It beckons me forever

to lie in a dead sleep.

Can I escape on my own?

Strange things are stirring inside of me.

Down deeper, and deeper I go.

Life slipping, draining, and dripping away.

Clawing the walls,

screaming for a redeemer

but still ever falling.

Blood spewing from the recesses of my mind.

Escaping from the hell,

running, sprinting, sweating.

All pointless.
