Strangeness

Strangeness


Strangeness.
Look.
Look around.
What the hell.
What’s
going on?
Accepting
what’s
seen,
what’s said.
Flicker
of existence.
Firefly flash.
What’s
the point?
Screaming
headlong.
Coming
then going.
Doing what’s
told, expected.
Rules.
What rules?
Who’s rules?
Vicious
vile
little creatures.
Thrashing
in the
muck.
Looking
for the
edge.
Swampy
reality.
Sticky gooey
mess.

Being Me

Oh I do like this (pops off to read again).......... Actually, I love it! I love the style you've written this in.... The style is bang on perfect for the subject. I love the way it speeds and slows.
