Giving in

He has taken you
You have no more control
You have been slowly coaxed into a tar pit
The sludge silently swallows your clean human skin, catapulting your spirit into a fiery chasm of ineptitude and dalliance.
You cannot feel anymore
It is all the same
You only notice ever so slightly the extremes
If there is too much noise it is garble and delicious debauchery to you
If there is too much laughter it is the tender kneading of a shiatzu massage
Your lasciviousness is frighteningly predatory
You are becoming a demon
You ooze an animal irrationality and feed it with raw meat
You see no need to turn
You cannot bear the sun
You do not see the sun
Only in fairy tales
The dark is real
The dark is palpable
The void and vacant nothingness is tantalizingly tacit in your request to rule it
You are your worst fears, doubts, pains, and nightmares
You feel no security and slide into the comfort of a momentary pleasure
It is all malleable, changing, shifting as the wind on the dunes of infinity
You are falling in a shaft, a chasm of endless futility
Suspended but falling
There is no hope for progression in your eyes
Just a faded reflection of a jaded pragmatism
It feeds your nothingness and soaks you to death a thousand times
Forever

Outrun Dark

Can I outrun the rain when I'm walking under cover of darkness? - ESCURO
Can I abate the flood of tears that well up in the cold? - FRIO
Pools overflowing, trickling from the corners of my eyes - OLHOS

For a moment I thought I saw spring
A placid thaw caught up in the moment
But not to be
One moment the sun pours through a hole in the sky - CÉU
The next moment the sky shuts up and cold fills my glass - COPO
I drink it deep with delicious disdain
So good to feel the contrast
So splendid to taste the bitter - AMARGO
Tempted by the sweet into believing it is all - TUDO
But it means nothing without the clouds, the dark, the rain, the cold.
A flake flutters past me
Another trailing to the spongy soil -TERRA
Like a piece of paper from a desk
A desk seldom written on by man but but God
The sky fills with a new white light - LUZ
That blinds as the flakes turn into clumps
For St. Patrick's Day I saw green but now no longer
Winter reclaims the life for today - HOJE
But I appreciate the whole
Every little drop, patter, splash, gust, rustle
It reminds me of a beam, chirp, smile, breeze, light
It envelopes my heart and enwreathes my soul - ALMA
Hope from all angles!
Lovely she comes
