Reveling After Dark

Not built off rose colored rhymes
Rather filth fire and the rot of time

Stories whispered too dark for sleep
Smoky muses begin to slowly creep

Art of the past and possible emerge
Electric waves through fingers surge

Sleep cast aside in favor of medicine 
Rinse repeat but never ever rescind 

Originally cultivated from hardness
Enough room for love and fondness 

Inspirational roots come from depth 
Backstories cast in darkness’ breath

Forged steel from abandoned sins 
A poet’s soul wears a tattered grin
