Interlude
By Future of Despond
I dream of the ocean
a sea of rubidius
the most deepest red
so graced with the reflection
of the bone pale
shattered moon
I dream of a black shore
soft obsidian glass
the dark sand
traced by the ebb and flow
of the carmine beyond
This end of a dead world
just beyond
the torn skies
of tomorrow
where my tattered soul has flown
I dream also of the rain
here on an empty beach
where everything of life is devoid
a sound of thunder
punctuates
the soft pattering
occasionally
Sitting here
out in a gentle storm
red awash the darkness of my perch
is very peaceful.
All this is a dead world
a dream
it is my reality
that is not taken from me
it is my reality
that I live
Even though somewhere out there, someone is slumped over in a heap, on
the shower floor. Slipped with a razor, coffee cup knocked over & grounds
everywhere.

Agreed with Zophiel. Imagery made this. The last stanza struck me like a ton of bricks...great job.

This was well done I thought. It seemed a slow but stead pace laced with well described imagery.

It was said to me, Future, none of your poems make any damn sense. This is my attempt to amend that, though the poem is of poor quality. When I happen to shake this lonely sort of absolute weariness, standard Corsair broadcasting resumes shortly.
