I find myself sitting here in bed, coffee in one hand, powdered donut in the other (because I’m a goddamn adult and I can do what I want), and although I feel so many things worth saying…I have nothing to write. It’s not writer’s block; I just feel like being a lazy shit today. So, I am going to repost one of my favorite poems I have written. This has been posted before, I think, so nothing new. Still, some of you may not have read it yet. Also, this one will definitely be in the upcoming book! Now, enjoy the poem, then go enjoy your Sunday. I am going to hunker down with a good book. Crumbs be damned!
Steal me away from this place,
And take me to the land of darkened dreams,
Where we can frolic among the graves,
Waking the dead from their slumber.
The cool night breeze,
Carries the faintest odor,
Of frankincense and rotting flesh,
Such a sweet and intoxicating mix.
Dark clouds above us,
Begin to sprinkle us with rain,
Let’s dance naked in the rising mist,
As the creatures of the night take flight.
Your eyes meet mine,
And I can see such a seductive evil,
And a mysterious grin,
That alludes to an exciting horror.
A chaotic place full of broken toys,
Lollipop daggers and belladonna potions,
And carnival rides,
That only go in reverse.
You lead me towards the deranged souls,
Playing the wicked games,
In which madness is the grand prize,
And everyone wins.
