Slighten Poems | Examples


Premium Member Risen Dawn-

I felt compelled to sniff the incoming 
My passion is the light Aurora 
The arrival brought such sorrow 
If you warned me about Gomorrah

arise yonder son soul rise 
rise up into the skies 
show us your lights 
brilliance and brights
 Rise up 
Dawn

I crave the desk dawning Dawn
Eagerly I look for the landing
Understood a polar Don
Of drips that are standing

Deep into the darkness dipping
I crave the ecliptic early endowments
I crave the light legacies l i c e n t i o u s n e s s
I crave the drippings dust darkness rent
And Humanity never slighten

Arise yonder sun so rise 
Rise up into the 
Skies show us your lights 
Brilliant bright 
Rise up
 Dawn

The lonely licentiousness launching
Wandering now? Now I crave the dusk dawning dystopia gone
Rise up dawn

She Will Soon Be Dead

All while fighting and trying to breathe
Another part of the mind just wanted to leave
But her body kept pushing and trying to stay
While all her thoughts began to drift away
Her mind kept racing and would not be quiet
All day, every day, there was a riot
Until one day when the yelling stopped
And all this happened when her body dropped
She could feel the rope begin to tighten
And all her worries had begun to slighten
Because she would soon be dead
And all her painful thoughts would leave her head
