Beyond The Trapdoor
I’ve been there so often
I’ve lost my fear, gone, forgotten
The darkest abyss
Under a cobble-stoned crest
Opening into a gloomy manhole
Trapdoor to the soul
Below the floor
My elbows do score
Over dried out soil
Beneath sticky cobweb curtains
Fingernails claw my way
Toes pushing against crumbled clay
No space, dusty tears
No air, dirt I chew
Shouldering under bearers
Squeezing, I burst through
I’m here, there’s a job to do
I begin searching for you

One more yawn… The day can wait!
Just a stretch… The tasks will fade
would sitting up do? Ceiling glaring makes dreams look true!

Why move fingers to write a drum? Wait… maybe another snare will come?
Why live for you? Laying here was easier for death too…

by: Sheikh Shadi Marjan In the tears of the flute I’ve lost far beyond The tune of that flute reflects the tune of my cry She’s crying and crying, but why? Why’s she crying so much? What’s her suffering? Who’s hit her, who’s left her? Doesn’t she know? My pain is much more than hers!
by: James Matthew Byers, the Darque Bard She bleeds love, dripping sweat to get a glove on the hands of bands and boxes where foxes steal her resolve, but she revolves around the tiny feet to eyes she has to care for minus the wolf who left her.

by: Forever Rose In the beginning, infatuation can be such a beautiful ride, It makes you feel giddy with butterflies inside. All to soon, though, it fizzles and fades and like freshly cut flowers it, all to quickly, withers away.
