Dungeon

Dungeon

By: The Red Cat Jazz of Love

 

 

Sitting, before the board up shack of my prisoner thoughts.

The drain of my ego, is shattered and a 9 mm Beretta

is camping out in the Taliban of Canaan to undo the canker worms

that sworn into secrecy saying

Ah… I can't see the face of my destiny despite I own it...Unknown.

I gave directions to the years and the days I will come down

in turmoil because the genes of curse is a blood line that

I have a loan on despite I inherited,

but I own it unknown. I flee on the run

to Vaasa but my credit card swiped the total of hypocrisy

putting me in chapters of macabre.

My face is ashamed of the name of The United States of America

because some where in the tribes of chaining my ancestor papa life

I lost by un given choice to know my roots despite I own it

Through this troubled life zone. The strength of my bones

can’t be called by 1411 information because my dungeon pain

Is unlisted. I walk as an emotional thrift sale zombie

closed in four womb walls of my own.

Because I can't see the face of my destiny despite I own it...Unknown.

    The chains we place upon ourselves are the most cruel! The hardest to break free from also. Never imprison oneself from the possibilites of the future. Such a thought provoking poem my friend!

    Everything in this poem is a cry out of passion speaking from the soul. Simply wonderful as you know you are, GOD bless.

    Very strong, deeply emotional, and I loved how you closed it. This particular bit grabbed me and I found it well expressed: "The strength of my bones
    can’t be called by 1411 information because my dungeon pain Is unlisted. I walk as an emotional thrift sale zombie closed in four womb walls of my own."

    You are very talented. I can see why it won gold.

    wow

    (once I really got into the flow of this) (at first uncomfortable as it was at first) I found myself pounding, in awe, flying, mezmerized by th playy of words, so powerfully matched together! there were so many places in the poem that I had to print it out to get the juice of it and re-chew the parts I found so alive. Here are a few:

    "my credit card swiped the total hypocrisy putting me in chapters of macabre."

    "I lost by un given choice to know my roots"

    "I walk as an emotional thrift sale zombie closed in four womb walls of my own."

    no wonder you won gold for this

    (thanks for your comment on my lips poem (I changed it, do you think it still has the impact?)
