The Death
of
Poets
is it any wonder
how writers,
even so young ~
their faces tight and bright with sun,
their eyes a gleam ~
how yet they still succumb
to emptiness?
their faucets dripping dry
an empty sky
no air, nowhere to run
no thoughts to dream?
then let the bullets fly
let blades invade the vital stream
let souls depart
and in ascension seem
to find their heart

Not a popular topic here, but I delve into it on a few pieces. I like dark things too on occasion...not all the time...probably not most of the time. But, as you know, writers are motivated by depression as much as any emotion. Perhaps more.
Thanks for reading this, girl!
