Rind

On the floor on the slightly white carpet,
cross-legged as usual.
Conversations vague and hazy.
Mostly true,
some entwined with lies.
Something about sell...
Someone lived that!
Could be me,
but whispers are hard to hear.
Such sickening reality
is only hard to see
if your eyes are hard to open.
Wow its so sad!
I'm so immuned to sadness.
I'm high but so so low.
Dull amazement
rushes through my spine
The voices combined create a whine.
Picked up the phone,
cut the line.
Lost my mind....
Toss the fruit and eat the rind.

I love it , I am into dark poetry , as you will see as soon as I start posting and writing some more. I especially liked the line about being ammuned to saddness, my life I would say frrom probably 2yo and on. And I can definitely relate about being high but oh so low. Sounds to me you might be writing about being bi=polar. But that is just my thought. I loved it and thanks for sharing. Sarah Redhawk

I may well be bipolar, as it runs in the fam...BUT I'll never admit it. This was written at a teenage point in my life when I was not nearly as balanced as I am these days. These are metaphors and trick phrases mami. Smoke and mirrors.

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.

Plato (BC 427-BC 347) Greek philosopher.
