A place where… Black is the Colour of Light!


In the Dark Regions of the Nether Worlds...My Mind Atrophic
this where I SubSisted...Black is the Colour of Light
Mental Hurly Burly...Confusion the Norm
BrainSucker was I...Suckling the Wonder from the Living

Great Poets and Philosophers of Yore...Socrates, Thoreau, Aristotle
Thinkers...Perpetual Provokers...Hunters of Truth
With Their Eloquence of Thought...Their Sure Footed Words
Their Spirited Pursuits is the Nourish...for Future Men

Poesy...Philosophy...Literature...My Heart this Desired
Read it...Write it...My Soul I'd Sell...for just one line
Tried I Tried...Again and Again
The Heart Cloven...yet Spirit Stays True to the Path

Tortured Genius Fermenting...till it be Vinegary
i became only a shell...of what i should have been
failure heaped upon failure...heart ladened with self-reproach
each course traveled...a dead end ensured

Sagest with Philosophers Stone... Divine Inspiration for Fuel
A Brainwashing applied to craft a new ME
Two half-wits become one... Lucidity now in Dominion
Breath of Life... from husk to Thor... I God of Thunder

My Soul...Soothed and Warmed... Elysian Fields I Now Live
Life Filled with Wonder and ME with New Child Like Eyes
SunRise an Awe-Inspiring Sight
The Adventure Now Begins... and Joyful for the Opportunity

I once longed to be something I couldn't
I now work to be something I can
