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....
