"They say to follow them so here we go / Doing the Apocalypse Calypso"


Poem Artwork

Apocalypse Calypso

On an odyssey of idiocy
Where nobody makes any sense it seems
The degradation and indignity
Unfold as in a long night of bad dreams
With no morning no opportunity
To wake and wonder "what happened to me?"

Huddled together completely alone
No past no future the present unknown
Trying too hard to forget what has been
Written on the wall by a spectral hand
Too terrified to think of what will be
Written in our blood on the drifting sand

Just hoping not to see not to be seen
Where nobody could ever understand
Just wishing to disappear quietly
Lunesta midnight and Lexapro noon
Strangers to ourselves in a stranger land
At least they say it will be over soon

They say to follow them so here we go
Doing the Apocalypse Calypso

I totally agree with what you express in your verses here, my brother. As for your daughter's comments, I can fully understand your joy. I have two daughters and they are gems of wonder. I also have a son and he is a gem of wonder as well. Children are precious no matter how old they are. My eldest is twenty-five tomorrow and she's still my little girl. Thank you, Stevie. Love and peace,

Regis

Yes written in our blood on the drifting sand.
I respect your work too and will return soon.

Peace,
