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.

Future: The Spiritual Story of Humanity by Glenn Martin

Histories of the world are generally written to either celebrate technology and science, or to herald doom. My book examines the path of the spirit in the onward rush.
