In the dark no one cares
Everyone sees the pain, but will not stop to stare
In the dark where shadows lurk
Unseen visions of destruction and hurt
In the dark Hells flame burns hot
Lost sinners tame and God's angels forgot
In the dark you become lost & confused
Just another soul for Satan to use
In the dark torched spirits become one
Under direct control of God's forgotten son
In the dark you know you have failed
So welcome home sinner
Welcome to Hell.

It is my dream to show all readers the gifted talent these forgotten souls possess. I want the world to see what I see, and not just a preconceived image.

This gave me chills. The rhythm was hypnotic and the imagery of being in the dark had so many meanings.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite line was: "In the dark torched spirits become one". Powerful stuff.

Wow, I read them all b/c they fascinate me - until your header & footer confirmed my thoughts that inmates wrote them. I wish you'd do more with them - publish a book? Send off to local media? Any funds made off of their poems could go back to charity/programs, etc. I just stumbled across your blog so I am not sure what you have or have not done with them. Please let me know! Cheers, Julie
ReplyDeleteJulie,...thank you so much. I really need to post an update of where this blog has ended up. Not exactly how I wanted, but maybe there is a purpose behind it all.
ReplyDeleteI'll update this soon!
