Listen to the breathless wind, Howling and whistling through the pit stops of life. Open your eyes to the war being waged all around. Forces of good and evil have made their final stand. The daylight shines less and less whilst the darkness glows in the neon night. Too many are those seduced by this heartless beating of the night. Evil spirits are plundering the weak and ego massaging the bad. The relentless juggernaut of self infliction grips like the cold. Only the warm hearted can survive this merciless onslaught. My heart is crumbling through this justified paranoia. Who of you can stand tall to this disease? Woe to you who wallow on the brink of sanity. It is only the pure that are left to be corrupted! |

"Evil spirits are plundering the weak" great line! I'm new to the world of poetry, so I wish I could critique you, but the imagery I get from your poem is great. Hopefully someone as good as you could give me some pointers! |
