A…POET…A…Pen
Two-dimensional plane,
Pain contoured, though outlined shame
Divulged emotional stains,
Fallow-beaconed hate
On shallow lines,
Outline dies with chemical dyes,
Inscribing my life
Defining my demented side
Reviving cemented strife,
Abiding time-crying rife words
Adjectives, nouns, and verbs,
Words to express, my life, my dreams, my death
Sliced dreams, the scythe my pen
Ascending greed, condensing my infinite end
Descending hates within,
Emotional martyr suspended amid…
My soul…exposed with ink
Bleak existence begins,
External end extends…
Bending mirages of light…
Wrenched plight of life
Devoured with reckless strikes
and strokes…of pen
