The Dark Corners

Shock To The System

The Dark Corners

Investing in near future a peculiar passion,
A soul identified, served purpose in action.
Giving wayward far more than is a uniform,
Taking time to meet practices of all reform.

Changing perception to greet an invention,
Of mind altering matter used in a reflection.
Casting suspicion away to make a monster,
Intent laying waste past scales of measure.

Trophy symbol of a life turned upside down,
With creature comfort delivering the thrown.
Natural routine rejected for lust of surrealist,
As kaleidoscope vision links with a fantasist.
 
Gothic mutation determining paths is a tale.
An insertion into a polite creates all but pale.
Dramatic levitation of spirit raising the dead,
With love of scares burning a marriage bed.
