Just One of Those Nights...

I am having one of "those" nights, so bear with me and eventually I will get past these weird writes...ed

JUST ONE OF THOSE NIGHTS…


 


Some nights I come home to write humorous poetry,


Some I come home to just get a buzz,


But tonight is odd as I am home & into writing,


But not the usual comical prose,


More something in the vein of decompose.


 


Rather I would write something that cannot be written,


Or read by more than a select few,


Maybe while they kneel in a church pew,


Prostrate to their golden cow as they all grew in their chosen religion.


 


If I was to keep writing dribble,


Such as I have this evening,


Would I be read half as much by my fellow authors on AD?


Or would I be thought of as one who only scribbles?


 


I find that my writing on nights like these,


Leans towards the insane,


Rather than the mundane,


As only I can say how my writing can go,


Or stop, if that is the only way it can grow.


 


At the moment I feel as if my writing is just so much chow mein,


It makes me feign just a little strain,


As a writer I use too much of my brain,


To maintain,


My web domain…


 


Tell me, am I sane?


Or, around the bend have I gone in my little train…?


Let me just say one more thing…


                    -auf Wiedersehen!

Just let it flow . . . Your thoughts have deep emotions and really makes the reader stop and smell the roses. b

I think all the emotions expressed are valid and life giving. Some people who read my erotica or humor are shocked when I write dark poetry, but it is just as much a part of my soul as the other. Write on and never apologize again.

Just keep writing whatever comes out :-) A rant can be a good thing. You can't always be funny. Thanks for the sharing.
