Poem -
Dark Circles
A barbarous evening last night
No pilot at the controls
Artificially induced InsomniaΒ
Dark eye sockets like dogs arseholes
Gums numb like dead nipplesΒ
A furry caterpillar tongue
Crimson blood in saliva
Heavy lead lines laboured lungs
Wishing moments away
Craving the next vibrant dawn
An unholy creature incarnateΒ
A profligate being rebornΒ

Holy Cow!! SYD!!!.....sounds like one helluva time was had last night.....followed by the hangover from hell!!.....I have to say though....THIS is an exceptionally well written/crafted piece.....with extraordinary phrasing that brings to life the hangover/regretful aspect of "It was a blastΒ while it lasted ~ but payed for it the next day!" ~!

Hi Tony, thanks so much for your positive comment and also for the pin.
I'm much better now, very little money was spent on the night in question actually. I wanted a word to describe wastefullness in better detail....I came accross the word 'Profligate' and I'm so glad I did.
Hope you're keeping well. Stay safe.
