Spectral Secrets

I've totally felt this way before.

Woah, glad to hear that. Not just me then...

Thanks for the comment.  :)

This is a very deep poem I like how you see the keyboard as a Ouija board..connected to our inner spectral secrets..this is deep!!! peace Crim

Thank you Crim, for the list add and your kind thoughts.

:)

Indeed the great escape-You pen the mind and reality in it's starkness!!!
Excellent Pen as always Atakti!!!

Thank, soul, for your enthusiasm.  :)

I know this Atakti, livid it too long, I used to dread falling asleep.  The subconscious likes to play.

Wonderful pen. :)

Subconscious is a strange creature...

Thanks!

I really like the turn this takes towards the end. It'll occur to me at some silly point in time, but I can't remember right now the writer whose poem I was reading a week ago, where in it they talked about being concerned over the password they used to log onto stuff online, and how repeating that word with their fingers loads of times a day might be influencing their mind in some way they couldn't detect. And your end verse reminded me of that - I really liked the idea in those lines, and all the clicking and tapping in them. Also think that sudden declarative 'this isn't helping' is great. Almost wanted to nudge that 'think' away so that that statement would have the whole line to itself.

Hmm, interesting what you say about "repeating that word with their fingers loads of times a day might be influencing their mind in some way". If you remember which writer, get back to me, I'd like to read the poem.

Thanks for your in-depth feedback. The 'think' is important to the piece, but I'm glad you liked the line.

There is so much I want to say, but alas I'm using my freaking phone.....this is real I like real, I need real. Absolutely sufreakingburb!!!!

Wow, nikki, glad you liked it!

Brilliant write, one with depth :)

Many thanks, Scribbler!  :)

Your writing is as wonderful as a croissant is yummy!

Thanks, ohbe, and welcome to DU.  :)

Its like an abstract flow of words, in the end it becomes peaceful and tranquil.....much enjoyed your poem, Ataki!

Thanks, Mourganna, for your interpretation and the kind comment.  :)

I really like this, it's very honest and simple, yet filled with emotion. :)

Thanks, Jaime!

Welcome to DU.  :)

this happens a lot during illness... like right now... :P
nice

Hmm, that could be...

Thanks for the comment. :)

Thanks, Gabriel, I like those lines too. :)

Definitely my favorite part Atakti

"Then interrupted slumber brings me the
disorderly vomit of mind processing - a
pregnant sister drinking vinegar, a friend
bickering over clothing, distorted dogs"

Excellent read :)  

Thanks, Maggie - you and Gabriel both, and me!

Yeah, I was kinda pleased with that part.  :)

Wow, I felt this way right before being involuntarily admitted to the psych ward. I was under eighteen and those who owned me felt compelled. Anywho, I'm fine now. This was very well written.

 

...

Should I be worried? Maybe I would but I'm sleeping better now.

Glad to hear you're fine now, and thanks for the comment.
