Darkness State of Mind

Darkness state of mind Darkness can be state of mind, And sadness makes you sort of blind, Although the sky is grey as grime, Weak brained tripe, here needs attention. Does magpie smother find you weak, You raise your voice and only squeak, Think you’re fat or thin, now bloody tweak, Cool dude, by re invention! Self worth is driven down, Actor you, invert the frown, Jabbering jaw jockeys from the town? Step on for thy ascension, Negative voice is sorted here, Act the part, become , sincere, Personality gets set free, Jibber jabber just like me, And walk like Jack the lad! Don Johnson 27-Aug-11
John S Jabbering jaw jockeys pull you down, so climb upon em, cause em frown, be the strongest spirit, clown, and rise above the chaos!

'Jabbering jaw jockey;' sounds like me. It's hard to think positively whilst you step on me.

This is a very impressive poem, Don!! You got real deep here, different than your usual light poems! I agree especially with the Title and the first line! My favorite line though, "Negative voice is sorted here," I think it states so much in a small punch! Thanks for sharing a deep and meaningful write!
