Voices in thick redness,
Puddle of blood gathers...


Drip.
               Drip.
                               Drip.



Moments conceal…
     In the midnight mist!
The reflected beast in disguise…
  


Wall mirror falls to the puddle,
Shattering into bits of small reflections.


But …reveals...
     In the midnight mist!
The reflected beast in disguise…
    


And I start to laugh…
While, blood drips down my head…

Drip.
                Drip.
                               Drip.

WOw albert, quite the dark poem. Very well written. I fully enjoyed the poem!  

I was born myself, raised myself, and will continue to be myself. The world will just have to adjust.

Glad you're posting again Bertal!  
I liked the poem, up until the end...then I was horrified.  
And then I hid under the desk. And then I waited. And then I tried to get out, but I bumped my head!!! So I came up and read it again, so it's okay now.  

Translation: I found this quite dark in a..."humorous" kind of way. not ha-ha funny. But...amusing. NO! Not ha-ha amusing...bah. Forget it. *sigh*
I have to admit that at times, I didn't know what you were talking about...but that's me. I usually don't understand things. My friend always tells me to listen to myself before I speak...
I liked the way you did the 'drip' thing. In red...blood...red...uhh.......
That's about it for now. Keep posting alby. KEEP POSTING!!! Don't leave again...

Heya Sunshine!!  

Dark and very out of your style which is doubley good in my opinion. The imagery sparked from this piece is simply outstanding. By far, this is one of your best poems I have read. Actually, it is one of the best poems I have ever read. The usage of italics is great because of the varied mood in the piece. Without them, it wouldn't have the same feeling to it.
"Wall mirror falls to the puddle,
Shattering into bits of small reflections."

Shatting into bits of small reflections...wow. The whole image of that happening blew me away. Mind you, with your pieces, you tend to do that a lot.  

"And I start to laugh…
While, blood drips down my head…"
That really came across as a psycho scene or a madmans scene. Think The shining, think psycho itself, think every psychotic horror movie there is. All you need is the axe and the twisted eyes and you've got that down pat. It's so dark yet so deep at the same time that I can not give you enough praise for the piece. Actually, the more I read it, the more I grow attatched to it.

"Drip           drip       drip" did a lot for this. The emotion was played out well by doing it in red thus reinforcing it is blood dripping and not beads of sweat.

In whole, it's different, creative and coming straight from your heart in the darkest place. You call out with this piece and I truly adore it. Don't you ever stop writing, Mister.  

Take care buddy.

Great poem! I seriously loved it...
Kicked major bootay...and the way it was written!
I pictured someone all in black banging on some congas reciting that...  !

  Glad to see you back!  This poem kicks serious butt!  It really got you in the moment.  With your use of good imagery.  I hope you're back to stay.  I miss reading your work!  

If we're told we're bad, that's the only idea we'll ever have. Maybe if we are surrounded by beauty someday we will become what we see.

Well, I read this 3 times. One to just get a "surface feel", two to pick it apart, and three incase there was something I missed. I came up with some interpretations of what you were saying (symbolicly), but I'll talk to you about them later privately. (I'm sure what I wish to talk about isn't allowed here.) I'm glad to see you posting again, even if you don't intend to do it regularly. I'm not sure what you've decided on so I'll just be general about it. Anywho....

I really, really liked this poem. You've captured a side of me (and many people I'm sure) that isn't always an easy thing to grasp. Thank you.  

Be kind, be true, be bold, be you.
