A Man's Delusions
You’re wrong. And I wish you’d know it. You’re not the victim, Of some elaborate plan— You’re just wrong. I set my boundaries. I set my rules, I drew a line, In the sand of our relationship, And you crossed it. Over, And over again— You say it was accidental, But if that was an accident, I don’t want to know what you think is purposeful. Choosing delusion over reality, Can’t...

Premium Member Dance with Delusions
Dancing with delusions, sparks of hellfire Course through my lugubrious quill pen. Distorted words igniting fear, Anxiety fills crevices, Encircling, silencing, Asphyxiating. Walls closing in, Compressing. Hope fades, Doom. Dread Runs cold. Veins poisoned, Sanity slips Unmercifully. The angels are mimicked. Light dimming, darkness descends As demons mingle with the dead. Apocalyptic skies crack open To wash away all that you held sacred....

Shipwrecked in a sea of Delusions
Love Not felt, nor seen Lost…. Forgotten, lost to the waves Waves of hurt, bobbing away Locked, in prisons of their own making Cut off from the shore Shores not seen a while, marooned Till the rocks of culpability, to break To open a heart, shipwrecked Shipwrecked in a sea of delusions Shipwrecked in a sea of angst ...

Premium Member The Madness of the Crowd and Other Popular Delusions
(Dzachuka Tibet, summer of 2017) The Madness of the Crowd and Other Popular Delusions The crowd is always prone to madness Since reaction as a herd in danger Demands conformity without reason. The fact we live in a time of madness Is nothing new or unusual, Relative Reality after all being Merely a conspiracy of relatives. But sometimes it seems it’s all now extra...

Premium Member Emotional Siege
My emotions tease me at their will, Plunder my hapless intellectual world And declare a bloodless coup d’état. This undeclared war shocks my core, Grips me with a freakish fear And forces me to plunge deep within, To rein in my inner turmoil. Ceaseless kisses from my emotions Fail to hide their deep-rooted delusions With perennial problems of articulation. Hidden serpents on a rocky hill Stare...

Premium Member delusions waver away
My days full of joy. Delusions waver away like the fading colors of the rainbow. Strife is turned into peace as nightingales and their chicks sing in concert within the stage of the night. 6/25/2024...

Delusions of Grandeur
Why does the mouse disguise itself as a rat? Because it has delusions of grandeur. The mouse thinks it must win in life, And to win in life is to be intimidating; To make a name for yourself. Rats are feared, but who would fear a mouse? A mouse, with its big ears and adorable whiskers— A mouse is but a small...

MILESTONES
Roused by a rude jolt I start up from my half-slumber. Utterly clueless I move about clinging to my pet delusions in complete darkness of my past coming after me swinging a truncheon… I vaguely hear screams and yells hurled at me some time before echoing in my memory’s vault as from a distant past. But yesterday seemed like a bowl...

Manic Episode
delusions, illusions, these random contusions, idolic notions of noiseless commotions, keeps me in motion, whirling with the gravity I'm on my knees, praying what you're saying I still believe and if its true what i really need, is to be sent away from family and friends, I will contend but that doesn't mean it's not right for me, can't you see I'm not in control of this body anymore restless and sore, an endless downpour of emotions,...

……Somewhere a lone survivor of a plane crash A man of sound and reason standing tall and proud. But a voice of lies and madness whispering words of doubt. His mind a fortress sturdy no shadows in the crowd. But a path of doom and darkness ...
