Title: Psyche

Poem: Lift like night to swing the lights
Of a suburban street against
The smashed synapses of your
Interjection grafted like midnight
Against the drill of your insanity
That has become your emotional response to everything.
Drill away the core that is left
Seek to enamor yourself to the
New life and living that will
Become the new clothes of your inner psyche.
Drape your soul with hatred
And spit the venom onto
Page after page of writing that
Can spew out effortlessly from
The hand of your dispossession.
Think watch breathe detach
Wait for the medication to take
Its tidal effect on the shores
Of your inexplicable unconscious.
One fast poem before the meds
One last chance to see
A pen fly effortlessly
Across the page and
Into the realms of forever
One last moment
For fluent creativity to be expressed
I want this moment to never end
I want this momentum to become my inner Psyche...
