Depressive Fog

Darkness surrounds me
I reside in a black cloud
That brings me closer
To death descending into
a dungeon I can't escape

Saturday

There He lay as cold as ice, 
a darkened tomb His prison cell, 
until the dungeon filled with life 
& saved us from eternal hell.

Edges of Doubt

Art in loneliness
Shiny water of sea-green
Your smile shines bright in the rain
A wandering soul
Write treasures in your dungeon
The edges of doubt are sharp

My friends are locked up in their dungeon cells
toiling on tasks the teacher compels.
I'd rather use my time to run and play. 
A Pokemon did my homework today.

Come, my darling,
Make me a prisoner of your blistering love

So

In the dungeon of your arms, my freedom
To find!

Dungeon

My mind,
Slippery slope,
Once in, hard to get out,
It is an enigma, beware...
this maze!

Premium Member Doom's Date - Mar 5

Doomsday’s dismal dawn, in the deep distance, 
Is our dusk, the diadem of decadence;
Daunting and depthless, a dark and doleful dirge 
Deems this dungeon of demons due for death

Terrorist

The world latest vampire;
tackle him in all fronts,
treat him as a leper,
tag him a murderer,
take him to hell's dungeon,
till the world's peace returns
to me, to you, to all.

Premium Member Palaces and Dungeons

One's unending greed to built palaces on earth at any cost 

Succeeds in building dungeon in hell's domain for his soul!

Premium Member Chivalry Up In Smoke

Lady Guinevere and Sir Lancelot
Trapped in a dungeon, his help she sought --
   Guinevere screamed, she yelled
   But Lancelot, help withheld -- 
Damsels rescued, how quaint ~ This knight sold pot

Dragon-Fly!

Dragon-fly! 
Dragon-fly; 
Why are you chained
To the dungeon walls
And why you wail
In monstrous bays.
There is no one in fray
See my charm
My mind the computer CRAY
Generated to shelf you away.

Untitled #62 / St. Gregory

Dear old St. Gregory spent fifteen years
trapped at the bottom of a dungeon 
around 301 AD, bringing Christianity to Armenia.
What madness then drove him to save the king and his men?
What boundless love!

UN-NATURAL SELECTION


PERHAPS IT ‘S  JUST A BIG BANG DESECRATION
UNRAVELLING OF NATURAL SELECTION
BUT WE MUST CAST A VOTE
THE DUNGEON OR THE MOAT
IN HOPES THE WHOLE DAMN THING’S AN ABERRATION

A Dungeon

My mind is a slippery slope
Once in, it’s hard to get out,
Set in layers of intricate meshes
You’ll get entangled in my evil ways…
Beware, stay away!

Out in the open
That’s where real things happen
Not in a digital dungeon 
But where birds sing
Then inevitable evening
Canister and carronades
The flag is lowered
The candle fades  
A wisp, an ember
If not August
Pray September

Premium Member choosing nature

I sit in the sun
vitamin D massages my bones
I feel healthy
loving the warmth outside my cave

trading dungeon-qualities for lightness
away from technology of TV or computers
my cell phone inside, on silent
choosing nature over stress

Two Blue Velvets

Two 
Blue 
Velvets 
In the sun 
That shine so brightly 
Under the shade of ocean blue 
That caught my charmed heart into the depth of her dungeon 
Like a child longing for mother's tender touch, that does not care about what lays in store

Premium Member My Inner Child

You tried to murder her inner child,
but she was simply to wild
for your cage to capture her essence. 

She is an incandescent spirit,
your vile soul can only fear it~
return to your dungeon of doom,
and to the curse of your darkened tomb!

It regulates words glowing from my head
It translates itself as great help

Mount floors with open doors

In One Piece

In one piece hopes collecting tears 
In lost of dreams  as all  face  inner limits
All  become a piece tides in  nonsense war

As all in one piece gathered broken pieces
In tears lost of  love  our precious lives
Made us one piece against dungeon of darkness

A Castles Dungeon

Trapped in a dungeon
With chains drunken
Tipping a glass of wine
Thought’s intriguing
then wondering
If time will ever pass by
Hanging over a cliff
Balancing my time
With handcuffs on
And bars now closed
Drunken am I
Trapped in this dungeon
from drinking wine

Dark Days

I sit alone in the dark,
In the dungeon cold and damp,
I hear the drips and the rats, 
And I wish I owned a lamp.

My punishment was unjust,
And my thoughts are dark as night,
I’m starving, chained and afraid.
In my dreams, I dance in light.

Gruesome of appearance, the dungeon a fearful place
Rusty chains hanging down, iron maiden by the wall 
It was a harsh stern place that spoke volumes of pain
Made worse by gloomy creepy shadows casting monsters

Premium Member Alternative Truth

How dare you!
The masses were enthralled.
Christopher Columbus was going to get himself imprisoned.

It is treason!
It is blasphemy!
It is not what we believe!

Even if it is the truth? Christopher asked the queen.
Especially then, she said, as they dragged him to the dungeon.

Premium Member Sad But True

I was tempted by angels of Addiction
and the devil of Alien affection. My
dying wish, a dirty martini enema
to scour my sanguine soul and write
poetry to suit my heralding headings.
Leave your dreary dungeon self behind
No pain for time served.
No time for pain served.
Love is all around
