My Dark Journal

Bound in hard leather
Cherry black, black as blood
Scuffed and scarred
Creased and scratched
Bound in leather
As hard as life

Too many yellowed pages,
grown too brittle with time,
flake away in your hand,
as you turn them to read,
the passages within

Verses grown bitter, acrid
Verses that blur, burn and bite
Penned in the sinuous, serpentine
Hand of wantonness
Penned with the bright indelible
Ink of sin

Damn, you do this well.
Another awesome truly Dark poem. Enjoyed more than I can say.

I will not bend to the cowardice of a silent judgement.

You've made it seem like a book of evil. Nice picture you've painted!! I can almost smell the oldness of the journal.
