somebody's dungeon

Our paradise of love
tainted by deceit
is now the abyss
of the lost.

I doubt the poet,
I doubt the muse
even cares
about the cost.

Lacking sensitivity
minus creativity
losing all your sanity

now the asylum
is quite full

while paradise
sits empty.

This is a poem, alone

"now the asylum
is quite full

while paradise
sits empty."

In reply to "which way do we go?", the answer was never "straight", but, "progressively forward".

I always find it amazing how we can take the worst things about our lives, Anne,
and make them bearable
and extremely readable!
