TOXIC VINDICATION Toxic vindication, My ethereal vacation. God - how I love the sensation... Give me more - more - more - more - more!!! Such a scintillating feeling Sent to set the senses reeling Form the closet to the ceiling To the floor! It's the Wisdom of the Ages, Mysticism of the Sages, Darkness dealing in stages Of Pure Light so deathly Bright! The connoisseur of the blind An enigma wrapped in kind, Dilemma of peace I can't find By gift of sight... And so by darkness bending To this notion never ending ‘Tis reality but rending Me this toxic vindication. For I know deep down I'm dying But these are happy tears I'm crying... God - how I love the feel of flying, Give me more! Michael Anderson < !signature--> For all behind was dark and drear, And all before was night and fear. How many hours of night or day In those suspended pangs I lay, I could not tell; I scarcely knew If this were human breath I drew. Lord Byron [This message has been edited by Michael (edited 05-02-2000).] |

I have to agree that I think this had to be fun to write, I know it was fun to read! At the chance of getting myself reamed by my newfound hate-group, I want to point out that the last two stanzas didn't seem to fit, as they didn't rhyme on the last lines of each, whereas the previous stanzas did! :0) Still awesome Boss! |

I loved it! The musical rhythm just reaches out and grabs hold. With the first line you pick up the beat. Great job!  Without darkness there is no light Without the light we cannot see the dark Balance...It heals the soul -- by: LB |

jwesley, Indeed, had a load of fun with this one...LOL X-Angel, I know what you're thinkin' - you should know me better than that... This poem was for a friend of mine who can't seem to kick his habit... was not my own experience, dear. Chris, thanks for pointing out that utterly gross error. I feel so ashamed. I may never write poetry again. I obviously must suck to an endless degree to have let such a blatent err occur within one of my feeble attempts at doing such...LOL Seriously, I ain't a square peg so perhaps my writing would never fit such a hole... why must the last two stanza's rhyme just because previous one's did? That concept is so generic to me. I felt it added a jilt to change the ending... which when accompanying the very nature of the poem was good to bring home the point of the poem. God, I love being me... not having to allow my mind to be constricted to the senseless laws of sensibility placed upon the poet by those who have no concept of true poetry...LOL I'm ok, now... hehe, glad you enjoyed it.  Gen, Gen, Gen, I don't seethe and foam at the mouth now do I? and besides, it's too lat to cut me off - you know I'm toast after one drink anyway... But hey, I was smiling when I wrote this.  serenity, No deal breaker here - was written for a friend... You don't go breaking any deals either now - ya hear me!!! Lady Bere, I'm so glad you enjoyed this. I'm glad you saw the musical nature of it too, moreover the mere poetic nature of it. Would love to put this to music someday. Thank you all for you comments. Michael |
