this place, those words
can steal your breath
kick what's left to the ground
have you wide awake
long after the sun sinks
cos someone's words
set your own to multiply
in here, this place, those words
will have you wonder why
you hadn't found the underground
ages ago

There's this microcosm at the the corner
Of luxurious phonetics and musty basement.
The tromping of coming and going
Comes and goes
And some people yell at the comers and goers
For tromping through the house,
But everyone still calls it home.
Welcome to the Deep Underground.

I'M NO POET
I'm no poet
I'm his scream
I'm like the water that turned to wine
I'm no poet
I'm his dream
that felt like nightmare and was declined
I'm no poet
I'm his words
which noone is ever going to read
I am inchoate
I am worse
than anyone that you 'll ever meeτ
I'm no door
I'm its key
I'm a tiny little grain of sand
I'm no saw
I'm just me
but I'm a miracle made by Your Hand
I'm no poet
I'm a verse
I'm a living undead curse
I'm no poet
I'm his scream
I'm like the water that turned to wine
I'm no poet
I'm his dream
that felt like nightmare and was declined
I'm no poet
I'm his words
which noone is ever going to read
I am inchoate
I am worse
than anyone that you 'll ever meeτ
I'm no door
I'm its key
I'm a tiny little grain of sand
I'm no saw
I'm just me
but I'm a miracle made by Your Hand
I'm no poet
I'm a verse
I'm a living undead curse

walk into the cavern
of the deep underground
enjoy the many labyrinthine corridors
the words you will read
the visions you will see
can mesmerise you
that you may choose to stay
Welcome Poets
Enter the portal

beware, you may never leave...

Sacred Place
This site is so much
a part of who I am now
I feel such a deep connection
to the people here
I'm so grateful to the Web Mistress
for bringing us all together
on these sacred grounds
those not meant to be dare not tread here
slightly psychic I can feel the guardians
warding the doors with magic
this is an enchanted place
when these gates are closed
I feel anxious
my demons tugging on their chains
only free to roam here
other poetry sites dead to me
like locked doors
they must be talking in coded ink
I just don't get it
I'm sure other supernatural sites
are around but this is the one
that the powers that be saw fit to open to me

Outlet.
Here is a place to let your soul bare;
When you think no one will; here we care.
When you have gone to the bottom and down below
Go 'deepunderground' and let the words flow .
I searched long and hard for an outlet like this
If you have chanced upon here; give it a try,
Don't give it a miss.
