morning blues

Contributed by reprobate on Sunday, 25th April 2004 @ 02:44:46 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



It's half past five and about two cigarettes from dawn
From my mug, the coffee exhales it's climatic vapor
Passing time here,no,wasting it, in this silent alone
Dying with each agonized tick, without a clue or a care

Outside, dark green sedan strangers pass
Tossing the folded celebrities of the moment with precise abandon
Inside, sitting, thinking, getting older, wishing I wasn't
This living corpse greets another day with a sip and a puff

Would there be a purpose, some rhyme or reason
Such that might excuse the intentionless insomnia
Just what has happened to the muse of my existence
Away, perhaps, off on some travail of the gods

Greeting the morn with a final draw of bohemian disregard
Realizing time, the cruel jester, exposes any effort as futile
Life is a pointless joke always fading into history
A dream, no, a nightmare; a souless tear of lonely

Crushing out the morning's last lethal ember
I embark on the day's aimless chores
Maybe reason will return with the break of day
Maybe this earth-bound torment will find release

mike, this was superb and brilliant. i loved every bit of this. the way you wrote it and the words you used. i loved the philosophy especially. of course, i love those types of things, and when you capture every little thing i love in a poem, how could i not love it or appreciate your talent as a writer? this is the best first post ive ever seen =]

Michael, Oh my goodness, I saw much of me in this. I have a feeling I am going to find some goodies throughout these pages. You wrote this superbly well. I really dug that last stanza.
Peace,
Laura
