Whispers of Man
Centre of divine;
new crested life
I lay down the remains of the past
Insanity sleeps
in the whispers of man
And reality fades to the last
Fallen souls in the desert winds
Flowing in and out of my mind
Secrecy creates a frozen block
And brings in more lies to entwine
Substantial fair and frenzied lines
Adept of measured songs
Moments rest against the sun
Where absolute belongs
Simple sender seeks belief
Shaving flesh with stones
My craving in effective states
Will perpetrate my bones

Fitful way to describe such a mindset. Almost like a bounty hunter of the spirit. Seems almost a sociopathic narrative, but in an art, captured darkly expressed. Thanks for sharing.

Interesting take. This poem is a mixture of poems that I wrote in the 90’s. I was pretty dark back then.

There is a sense of spiritual awakening through a time of trial for me. Perhaps a reference to the ability of poetry to capture and express emotion as well.

Poetry is definitely a way to capture emotion that is not so easily expressed otherwise.
