Debbie Duncan Poet Free verse

Soul Sucker

Here it is again ~ the light of day 
Why they keep me here 
I could tell you it's fear
They sit in conference all day
I'm stuck in this padded room
For my own good so they say
 No, I think this is not so at all
For there are others like me 
Stuck in theses corridors of walls 
Sometimes I hear them talking 
Unless it's just the voices in my head
No ! no ~ I see dollar signs in their eyes
Soul Sucker  tattoo on their head

Kelly Deschler August 19, 2013 at 2:53 PM I can relate to the feeling of having my soul sucked from me, and not knowing who I am anymore. Very well done, Debbie! And, thank you for the nice comments on my poem "A Fairy's Fantasy", once again! It really means so much to me!

Don Johnson August 16, 2013 at 10:54 PM souls sucker to make you beep, dragged away from counting sheep, shut up brain no not a peep, the shadow talkers are sleeping, voices coming greeting, an imbecile retreating, bugged brain is in denial, ole solitude do smile, the walls hold shades a weeping, bugging out this bandy chile, retreating from the meeting, awhile... Don ..re: " Soul Sucker" Debbie Duncan

Phyllis Babcock May 29, 2013 at 5:13 PM Of course they are out to make money. That is why we lose our Can. doctors because they can become rich over the border. Suck every penny out of you along with the insurance companies. Nicely written. love phyl Debbie Duncan May 29, 2013 at 6:11 PM Thank you Phyl ;}

Cherl Dunn May 27, 2013 at 6:19 PM I agree with what you were trying to say doctors will do anything for money even keep you a prisoner. Debbie Duncan May 27, 2013 at 8:47 PM thank you for reading ;}

Andrea Dietrich May 26, 2013 at 1:04 AM yeah, I saw it was a challenge but still it could be based on something you know about. Hey, did you like Magic Mike? It was just an ok movie for me. I see so many ones better than that up at the SLC Broadway theater. they show Sundance Film Festival type movies,which I just can't get enough of

Richard D Seal May 24, 2013 at 7:45 PM Hi Debbie, Don't let them get in your head :) Yes a good write and sometimes you have to wonder if it's the dollars they really interested in and if they're not making matters worse. I've been away and out the soup myself, trying too catch up now. Take care, Richard Debbie Duncan May 26, 2013 at 2:03 AM Thank you Richard ;}
