Listen to poem:

Delirium Divides

In the corner of my room,
you’ll find many a decentralizing delirium dust
Where my mind does consume, 
peripheral visions of a malevolent distrust
Deprivations that entomb, 
metabolic disturbances of cunning combust
Temporal lesions loom,
of psychotic disorders in a state of thriving thrust.

I see you but cannot touch, 
thru nociceptive nightmares nurturing night
Hallucinogens that will crutch, 
frantic neurons paleocortical penal plight
I feel you but cannot clutch,
a dimensional dementia in a demons fright
Denunciative delusions a monstrous much,
external images in fetal flight.

I sense you but cannot taste, 
chemoreceptic catacombs of a pernicious smell
Stimuli distortions of waste, 
proprioceptors penetrating the gates of hell
The love I give is displaced,
impalpable illusions within a condemned cell
The love received defaced, 
from a schizophrenic defamatory defunctive dwell.

"I feel you but cannot clutch, a dimensional dementia in a demons fright" I am loving this heartfelt missive, that includes feelings I have had, but have not known how to express. I maybe understand myself better after reading this alliterative masterpiece, Winged Warrior.
