from a place where... Black is the Colour of Light¡ |
An epiphanific journey... from a place
where... Black is the Colour of Light¡
i had subsisted in the dark region, of the nether world¡
a truly dank place where; Black is the Colour of Light¡
my mind and soul, had laid atrophic in this dark region,
the confusing state of mental hurly burly, be... a norm¡
suckling wonder from the living... a brainsucker was i¡
Philosopher/Poets of Yore; Socrates, Thoreau, Paine;
Perpetual thought provokers, hunting the elusive Truth!
their eloquence of thought sculpted sure-footed words!
future of man nourished by their spirited pursuits of... !
a heart desired literature to study; Philosophy, Poetry;
to read it... write it... i'd sell my soul; just for one line...
I...tried and tried...again and again......tried and tried...
even with a cloven heart, Spirit staid True on the Path,
until it became fermenting genius... tortured to vinegar¡
i amounted to only a shell, of the possible possibilities...
i could have been... i should have been... but i couldn't¡
every path i traveled... a failure heaped upon another...
a dead end ensured, heart ladened with a self-reproach¡
Divinely Inspired Sagest's with Philosopher Stones, and
bags filled with so many Miracles created by Science...
applied a brainwashing... I embarked on a metamorphic
journey, cause of one of those modern miracles; a little
yellow pill to craft a brand new Me! A dimwit morph's
into a resplendent witting, and lucidity is now the Norm!
I Breath the Fresh Air of a New Life, and I am blessed
with a Special Gift... A pair of New Eyes filled with all
the fantastic excitement contained... in a little boys awe!
From a husk... into a Thor, God of Thunder! Life is a
New Sunrise... it's such an awe-inspiring might... with
my New Child like Eyes, and Comfy in My New Skin;
I am soothed and warmed, by that fact; i once longed
to be something i could not be¡ and now, I work to be
something I can! and now... a new adventure begins!

An epiphanitic journey... from a place
