Perished in the darkness

As color fades

Further gloom awaits us all

Defeating brighter beauty

Though gloom does not kill

But persuades our personalities

Transforming them to a natural phenomena

Which no human can explain

Tamper with thy creativity

As pictures are created

Of yearning mouthfuls of complex exasperation

Kindling the small but ever growing flame.

Minds at which we live by, breathe by, move by

Taxi their endless odysseys to awaiting terminals

To broadcast the energies of absolute extreme

To lands so close to home.

Tantalizing fantasies awaken the spirits

Whisking the only visions of sanity

Cast into the nothingness

Leaving scattered abnormalities behind.
