Darkness in Her Dungeon
 
 
 
 
 
No morning no bright sun
 
Just nuns all around
 
To recite bright light
 
For my freedom from
 
Fear and feeling off
 
 
 
 
But I would despise
 
In the outside those eyes
 
A black bundle in swirl
 
A hostile world looming
 
All conspiring...

Ego systems are felt integrity
some ecstatic times
and self-conscious mendacity
other significant times,

Restorative and yet unfortunately retributive games
with WinWin or WinLose, or even terrifying LoseLose dominant trends

More'n nine months on...

and still I feel infuriated at myself
concerning squandered funds
passively, senselessly, and willingly

learned behaviors to navigate
their respective independent lives

A fool's attempt to ascertain
A solid veil through which we see
and yet through which we will not pass

What I appreciate about playing musical chairs

This game is less about sitting around in chairs
and more about the traumatic absence 
of safe secure chairs

And these chairs are silent as a conspiracy;

an ex-colleague from bygone years spotted, 
walking in my direction, 
one in too many faces 
on a busy street now, 
in a big office then.

Neural pathway of coping escape
led to a padded place for shattered identities

Disposable souls, which fell thru the cracks,

Concrete tares of bipolarity

Sunlight screams,
When the peace is broken
By dark, dreary things,
Like doubt and despair, poverty
Of the heart and soul,
Paucity who can never know…
