Neurosis Poems - Poems about Neurosis


Light Up Dark Rooms

The dark rooms in one’s mind unlit, 
One is heading straight for a pit:
Will not take long the spot hit
While the injury just won’t fit!

Then, for dark rooms of the mind sit
As things about them have been writ
By pens with more goals than wished with, 
Knowledge conjured and teeth won’t  grit,
The–seen–with-the eye not a

Like troubles forbidden;
Showing their faces
In my secret places;
Peevish and fractious
