No Place is Safe...

Dizzy in the sun...

Weary under the moon...

Stinging are my eyes...

Blurry is the view.

My brain is tangled... entwined in thorned reflection and metaphors of unknown profundity.  My existence is ungenial at best.

Into the night and drenched in broken promises; a word is only binding when it's ink to paper.

Hours become days...

Evenings to gray...

No place is safe...

From the demons I've made.

.

No place is safe...
  No place is safe...

      No place  -  is safe....

    That was something very different and very unique. The style was original and it was full of dark imagery. I love how your last line makes you read it with a pause: "... ...No place - is safe...."
    That was pretty damn cool!

    I am suddenly terrified ans feel as if I have just met the boogy man. I think that at times we all feel like that. Why kid around, I think that deep down we are all lost and afraid. But isn't that what makes life worth liveng...not knowing the next move? Kudos to you my wise friend.

    Powerful

    I'm not exactly sure what non-monosyllabic means but now I will have to look it up but I thought your poem was amazing. I know a poem is powerful when I get a twinge inside as a read and this one did that for me.
