Darkness
The pitter-patter of raindrops on cobblestones
when walking alone, engrossed in your memories,
your thoughts condescend behind you like a
narcissistic parent.
Vision changes, perspectives are skewed
downwards. A skeptical outlook becomes
a recording in your mind; when does it stop?
How do I get to this moment? Where did
I fucked up?
A flash of gunpowder, the mind lights up like
for the one instant where you felt hope. You
had an answer, but the voices keep coming;
smothering, snuffing; the fire is gone
and I'm suffering in silence.

When I was little my father took me to a family reunion at my great uncle's house. Honestly, I don't recall him being all that great, but people still refer to him as such, so I must have missed something. There were many people there I didn't know, and probably haven't seen since. They didn't leave much of an impression, so I may have bumped into them later in life and not even realized it.
The thing I do remember was the house itself. Up until that point in my short life, I had never been in a house that large and elaborately decorated. It was very old and had accumulated a wide variety of artwork and antiques in it's history. Appare

Convergent Consciousness
Burning ghost heavens
in the ichor sky
Pulling me closer, closer,
closer to the blind, vapid Godhead
and the writhing vines
from the face of Pan
that consume me
Have you felt the weight
and the sadness
Of psilocybin dreams and cannabis dazes?
Where dreams of jumping freight trains
to the edge of night, Reached from the cold taut fibers
of the trampoline altar
And if the stars themselves could guide me to you
We would live forever
beneath their eidolon gazes.

Wow... Great job. The piece itself is very powerful, I love your choice of words. And the metaphor of speech marks, nice. I really loved how normal it all was, this could've been anyone. Great job, keep it up!
