Poem Commentary

Soon after this was written I went on medicine to help me focus... I was on it for almost 3 months. I quit the medicine so I could again write and think clearly... I am learning to deal with the creativeness of what my brain is... Most intelectual and creative people are close to insanity... The very great inventors were deemed as crazy... but alas, I function well... I just like to be alone as much as possible.... Pernell Rodocker

Delusions Of Peace

Scream louder in the brain,
Work hard to deaden the pain...
The gnawing at the roots...
The scratching noises take me to the lost sanity that will never gain victory again,
Sanity? Victory? I scoff...
In the mirror upon the wall, up the stairs down the hall,
Images past I see... fading, fading... slowly...
I see a man I never knew. Deep inside are cries of muffled sorrow.
The hurts of being lost with out direction,
Hope... again I scoff...
The darkness filtered from disgust and disbelief is no longer diluted with dust particles of light,
But the density is pure...
Pure darkness that not only reaches deep into the heart but engulfs the madness,
The madness that I call myself.
There has never been peace in this madness,
Only delusions of happiness that seem to twist any reality into unrecognizable fate.
A direction that spirals with the darkness and has the funnelled power of a twister,
Bringing destruction in its path...
Yet, in the midst of the delusion a small spark of curiosity catches the eye,
And for a brief moment...
As in the eye of the storm...

This poem came to me as fast and complete as if my brain was cycling through G-Force winds... Do you write complete works in a few hours if that "slow"? ...

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
