    Thought it was a Dream

    I'm a little rusty, but yea.....here it is

    Thought It Was a Dream


    an alarm clock goes off......

    Emerge from my slumber like an infant out of the womb
    Eyes glazed, mind dazed and overcome with gloom, it looms
    Due to breif captions of a violent scene, somehow serene
    My mental movie screen depicts an often reoccuring dream
    Silent screams murder silence, attempt to define the pain
    Extrimities are permiting me to inflict on one with my last name
    Stone hands attempt to wring her neck like soaked clothes
    Limp body froze, loosened life's grasp, my wife's eyes close
    Her warm corpse lays lifeless parallel to my previous mark
    Further proof that all's fair in war and matters of the heart
    Her lover's frame sat slain, marred by numerous lacerations
    Severing vital internal organs including his tool for procreation
    Murderous plot stopped by the alarm clock, which awakens me
    Snaps self back to reality, feel an emotional rush of complancency
    Had concieved this grim deed, but was aware where it would lead
    Since the plant we formed together had produced three seeds
    True I knew the bitch was cheatin, had often considered leavin
    But my little soldiers need guidenece and who else gon lead em
    Seein my children in pain was more than my pysce could handle
    So I plan to drown those bleek thoughts with shots of Jack Daniels
    As hands grasp for the bottle, my soul suddenly stricken with greif
    Seeing life's fluid stain my hands, bloodshot pupils stared in disbelief
    Liquor mixed with bewilderment, engulfed a weary soul now defenseless
    Confusion became reality, life's ironic illusion blurred once keen senses
    Brusies and scratches showed signs of a stuggle, I was still befuddled
    Muddled mind pirouetting like dancers, so weakend eyes struggled
    To search the room for answers, they stopped at a blood puddle
    Soaking the saatin sheets where two stiff silhouettes lay huddled
    Prepared for the emotional storm as the mental puzzle started to shape
    My worn body quickly rose to view the unbiblical couple's current state
    It was vivid, two mangled bodies ridged, intertwined in a death dance
    Three victims of sad circumstace, reality through my mind into a trance
    Wondering how I would handle the tragic situation I was now facing
    Heartbeat quicked................breath..................... mind started racing
    Knew there were no exit doors from this horrible nightmarish plight
    Execpt one that would only result in my eternal soul's final flight
    Unwantlingly embracessed my only option, knew the end had begun
    Rummaged through my cluttered closet, slowly eased out the gun
    Accepted the fate that laid before me was one I couldn't bear
    So I remorsefully put the gun against my temple and said a prayer

    *BANG*

    I thought it was a dream

    I liked the concept, and the how you were subtle with some ideas. The vocab was nice, fit the verse well. I though the word choice overall allowed there to be more description to the piece, as did the length of lines, filled with content. You flipped some lines well, changing from a simple idea, to a subtle one, that was more complex.

    "Muddled mind pirouetting like dancers, so weakend eyes struggled

    goddam man, you've been on fire lately. first off, the topic, sheer originality and dope execution. Your vocab was excellent and your wordplay:

    Had concieved this grim deed, but was aware where it would lead
    Since the plant we formed together had produced three seeds

    ^great stuff man. The imagery was excellent, you kept me reading from start to finish with interest. A few multi's, as ever, would help the flow a bit but this piece is more than strong enough to last without 'em. I'm gonna nominate this for OM of the week.

    Keep reppin us right.
