Open me up
and climb inside
and you may see
another side
of me,
one you might not
have wanted to hug
if you had met
it first.
Open me up,
climb inside...
be prepared for a glimpse
of the darkest
side,
my birthright,
my heritage,
my inhumanity.
For I have
wished you
Evil Thoughts.
I have wished
that you would vaporize
yourself...
and leave me
alone to watch
the morning sunrise and golden sunset;
to watch the dandelions and the irises
share the fertile grounds
that some greater power
gifted to us all.

Climb inside my nightmare,
and see what awaits you.

Kacy,

Love the honesty in this. completely described the dark side of me, animal that I am, selfish and self centered to the nth degree, without the God factor.  Definitely something to think about, this poem.

I've no idea if this is your meaning but mine fits well for me. A reminder!

Thanks, Pat

Peace Jiminy.  Your 'inhumanity'...I aspire to.

Kacy, regretfully I've showed ya'll just a tiny bit of my sassy side.......but I'm sorry to say, there is still a lot more of me........
.

Just one of the reasons I love my Love so much.....he's seen ALL of me and loves me anyhow.....something for that "unconditional love", isn't there???

But, we all love each other that way here, too, don't we.....

Hugs to you today, Duncan, from Jiminy.

Sy, sometimes it's best to keep a safe distance.

Ethel, I'd bet your dark side is still quite warm and bright.

Enjoyed your journey into the darkness,must be the fullmoon.Be it the individual or the collective a truthfull glimps of a denied reality.Write on Kacy.

Dance like nobody's watching...
Love like you've never been hurt...

(sigh) Oh Kacy, I too feel I am incredibly multi-faceted, I have a rebellious side as you have noticed, I can speak Spanish somewhat well, I can write music, there is much more than meets the eye in us all! (big hugggsssssss) This is excellent, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Kacy, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
