vile delirium
it's a black night
& I can't sleep
my demons have been
very vicious of late
biting & tearing into my mind
making me frightened
to close my eyes
they enter the doors
of my soul with force
once I their mistress dark
but no more
i conjure them from time to time
expecting what I free
not to haunt
words i've spoken in the dark
pour on my head
they burn & corrupt
should I again
enter the darkness
cast aside my light
& traverse the abyss?
even now my demons scream
& moan their displeasure
they must be appeased
let loose to reek havoc
spill lady dark
from the bowels of hell
release the beast
you conceal so well
under a smile
so wicked & vile
speak the blasphemous
words of your Master
let legion march
deep into the night
bringer of pain
this is your duty
to unleash the one
that rots inside you
let it wriggle & crawl
into the brains
of the masses
cause delirium
bring the sane
to their knees
this is your power
wield it cautiously
your tongue a dagger
careful it doesn't cut you

Ah my lovely, lovely vile delirium. This is more my pathway. How enchanting to read the words as the melt into each other and slowly drip of this page.~_~

As usually, I loved it... It also reminded me of this little thought that once crossed my mind:
"An actor prepares
for the Devil's stare
When, at last, they, at each other, stare
the Devil blinks first..."
"An actor prepares

That last stanza is pure gold, beautiful one. You let your voice carry, regardless of what it has to say. Never silence what needs to be said. Don't leave it trapped inside your head where it can wreak havoc. Sending you so many hugs. I do so love you

thank you lovely one yes I let the dark shine but I agree the last stanza was a telling one because it's a warning to be careful how I channel.. this one bubbled to the surface & I had to let it out.. I love you lady.. Crim

A powerful visit to your dark side Lady Crim. My favorite lines:
spill lady dark
from the bowels of hell
release the beast
you conceal so well
And the last stanza is perfect. You watch your words, hold your tongue if need be. You know how to capture a reader.
