Notes About The Poem

Since this website, doesn't support Freedom Of Speech. I'm not allowed to say, how my piece came about.  But, let's just say it involved ??‍????‍?? And that the 1st two lines of the 2nd section is a clue.  (Which will be seen, if I can add some pictures)

 

STAGES

The Whiteness
The Blackness
The woods
The meaningless words 
The Lies
While we fall behind

Writing in white
On white paper
The Love
The Hate
The Screams (Hidden)
The Laughter
Things Forgotten 
They don’t see
They do not care
About you
Or me

Lost in these words
Lost on these pages
Lost in the mind
Exit out of reality
Enter the unknown
See what’s not shown to you
Look Behind the scenes

These words
Written out on these pages
Were written out in stages
Pages containing rages
Pages showing stages of words
Let loose like swords
Cutting, slicing through rages
Cutting deep into the stages
Of the mind

Inner thoughts hidden
In the abyss
Of the recess 
Of the cryptic
Afflicted 
Cerebellum
Septic Society telling their lies
That they offer up as the truth
Toothless grins
Stiff chins
Fall into place
Or be replaced
In stages
Throughout history
Hidden in pages
Messages between the lines
Fines slowing the minds
Oh yeah
Words hidden within pages.


If you can see through these words
Let loose
See through the lines
Lost are the words
I thought to write
Ohhh how, mind fights within
Inner battles
Always amiss
Escaping bliss
Missed a kiss
This is nothingness
Writing in stages
Of music playing
Sitting on a sofa
Loafahh, mofaal 
Riibbit LOL

STAGES.
