Nebulous Thoughts Clouding My Brain

Deep restless thoughts that eddied in midnight disclosure, 
My old mind shivered in traumatic tribulations.
No treats for dissolute persons to seal composure.
My mind filled with moths and other abominations.

I dreaded the spooky strength of my demon nightmare, 
Defying all useless urges of vigilant trance, 
Perpetual murmur of unceasing burbled fare, 
Moonlit wintry rays indulge in a macabre dance.

Relinquish all dreams that cloud my old illicit thoughts, 
Grab sturdy roots, get out of that pit, aim at my goal,
Can't let my senses get dulled but avoid useless rots, 
Saunter steadily in love which is life for my soul

Perfect for this time of year. It's easy to get caught up in dark thoughts when everyone around you is trying to be a witch or something. Good stuff Victor. God Bless, JB

Resisting the macabre dance of dark thoughts and dreams can be difficult during a long restless night. But the sunshine of morning always returns. I love the optimism and resolution in your poem's final line. :)

Victor, I have nebulous days too and feel the way you do. I can’t find peace of mind after all me and mine have been through and still are. Excellent write… Belle

Victor, you did a wonderful job of expressing how you feel. There are occasions when a tumultuous evening finds itself in a dangerous area. The resolution you provided in the final stanza is interesting to me.

Muddle brains try to invade our living, but somehow, we overcome. Blessings friend.

Sometimes those thoughts fill our heads and there seems to be no way out of them. Often some sort of distraction helps. Tom
