Where When Both Gates Meet

Hello there faceless stranger
Weary from travel
Nameless in time
What are you reading?

Me?
I am but a poem
Made by a Madman

Flung deep
Across his papers
Scattered in secrets
So slight it deafens

 

Where just a few 
Blind steps
Aimless and foolish
Stumbles upon his halls

 

Where the music so eerie
the sounds strung in strings
are broken
and echoes in the dimness

 

But each plucked note
Ripples through ears
A new song
You can never write

 

It falls full in your mouth
with a fevered temper
Then slips off
Like words of the eager

 

As twisted as it is
His halls are taken
By the end of our lives

 

In each letter
and each word
Iā€™m only but glad
to be heard

Author's Notes/Comments: 

We spin around the room and fall. Stand up. I spin around alone. Throw up.

To be honest... When I post this. This has the spaces in between, but when it shows up. It's broken up, and it deeply irks me.

Like Words of the Eager

When it shows, poke it in the eye with the tip of your on fire quill - s'what I say - Loved every well placed word and the spaces in between ~A~
