    Carry me back to a space in time before I was Rime
    Rewind my mind until I find the seventh sign
    Blind - I'm twice removed from the fifth element for the hell of it
    Study my unique genome through this poem as I roam
    On this plane of existence with weakened resistance
    With thoughts swelling my brain with the persistence of existence
    Pounding drum beats through my soul
    Beating my essence into linguistics

    Now I speak in the tongues of reluctant prophets of truth and wisdom
    Thoughts flow from my third eye down my cerebral system
    The Grim Reaper stood before me
    And I embraced and kissed him
    As I barely missed him

    So now my opportunity for a dignified egress escapes me
    Demons hold me down
    While Satan rapes me
    Mr. Sandman brought me a dream in the form of this nightmare
    Took me to new places
    But I'd already been there
    And done my share

    Now I swear on a six pack of Bibles
    And build a case of lies
    And developed blinding cataracts
    In all three eyes
    Yet I can still see the future
    And predict my past
    Because I ate of the Tree of Life
    To break my fast
    At last I am free
    And you still can't see the real me
    How can that be?

    I like the symbolism and the truth behind it all... I feel the emotion. Keep writing.

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
