it

periodically it sweeps over me 
sometimes a calm tide
othertimes a swarm like locusts
alone in this
darkness is my warmth
it comes in floods and stays
in stints minutes, hours, days
smile and joke through it
damn being too candid

the wandering

young and dumb, when i
was enticed to a
fruitful wilderness
a phantasmagorical oasis
where i went
i could not tell
parts of the journey
i could not spell

i met many
they spoke and dressed like me
seductive words dipped in poison
unbeknown to us

i was unschooled in this form
of skullduggery
the Word? familiarly unfamiliar
to me

i went in
wholeheartedly, forsook
friends and family
i was taken...

don't regret many
but these actions 
i regret regrettably

caught in a web
of deception from my inception
born again?
the travesty of a false reality

imprisoned by the ghostspell
bewitching false messiah
serving man not the Man

followed man's opinion
on what's profane and holy

don't regret many
but these actions 
i regret regrettably

yet i journeyed
thought i was a freed slave
but really an enslaved freeman

oh, how it's taught me
this journey
went wandering to find me 
only to finish at the beginning

with me

mightier than...

mightier than...
the sword the pen, come like rapier
words pierce flesh
and cause permanent scars

mightier than...
the sword the pen
ends life and brings death
brings life and ends death

mightier than...
the sword the pen
brings tears, sadness
joy, anger, laughter fear

mightier than...
