Christy Stover Poet Rhyme

A Poetic Tantrum

there's a riot in my mind
a protest in my heart
a struggle to find
my spiritual work of art
    in search of something divine
    a deep yearning to hold
    that which could never be mine
    a beauty true and bold
my overwhelming wish to
sleep eternity away
perpetually causes me to
ever dream of someday
    it's time to write another page
    when will the plot thicken?
    as I try to quench my rage
    a new tirade may begin
puncturing my soul
bleeding out my spirit
through the gaping hole
I display my internal fit

Jannie Breedt December 10, 2016 at 6:47 AM Hi Christy, I agree with your so eloquently put sentiments as it is my quest too. You bring something to the table that is a search for divinity in our art. Also the poem' structure is pretty well put together.Jannie
