When some people get depressed or fall into pits of nihilistic tar, they think about killing themselves. Some lock themselves up in their rooms and turn the lights out. Some people take drugs. Well, except for the drugs part, this is what I do do. I also write poetry. In this Poetry Slam, I deliver about half a dozen poems I wrote while I was in one of these really black moods. WARNING: Contains themes that may upset those tricked into believing this world is a happy place. |

Yes, it's true, I do get fed up with life at times. I feel I'm going to explode the world with all my nasty thoughts. I wish my computer would melt. People become sheep. I start to thinking that maybe there is a God, but he's just... Well, just read these poems and you'll see what I think he's up to! | ||||
| Have you even been depressed? I don't mean sad, I don't mean a little weepy, I mean, have you felt like you had descended into some kind of personal, internal hell? Does this happen often? Over and over again? It does to me. I'll be sailing along fine, and then, as always, I hit the same old reef. I fall out of the boat and into the water. It's cold and dark and the air is foggy. I cry for help and no one comes. I struggle. I nearly drown. Somehow a lifeboat always arrives, though just who and how I've been rescued escapes me. For more on this theme, follow this link. |
