Whoo- 6/8/05, just came back from a holiday!

I'm gonna be doing some rhyming poems next- this one was influenced after I'd read a book of modern poetry and thought…why don't I have a go?


Dreams of Darkness

Dreams of darkness
Dreams of hurricanes
Deep booming of whale gutter
Rings in your soul
Like a bullfrog I swell
To fill up your deluded visions
No rhymes?
Pain tearing through telephone lines
As I rip your heart out
Still beating
Withered lamb bleats; it's
Spindly sticks still standing
As a carcinogenic blue violet flash blinds your eyes
Thunderous throbbing
B'dum, b'dum
Pressure builds up
Your eye sockets rattle
The dry echoes sneer back
Mind overload
Capacity breached
5-
4-
3-
2-
1…
Dreams of darkness
Swimming in space
Electric pinpoints of stars
Illuminate your soul
At peace
At last.


OK- something I threw up in the space of five minutes…darkly disturbing…

What do you think?
