Mad God Figments & Realities

Dream-inspired; fragments describing a nightmare I had about a depraved God and we're just the figments of his deranged imagination.

Defiled hands crumble, wrinkling where wrought

From steady shadows where vacancies are sought.

 

Lips echo under water, tickling little gnomes

Ashen until gray weathered mornings slowly begin to rot.

 

I defy all meaning in my name, defy all who may betray.

 

Glistening blisters populate every corner of Your eye

Gleaming like a shade of truth blooming in disguise.

 

Such a facade still threatens my immortality and within

Such grueling confines I drink from Your ultraviolet heart.

Combining all fathomless dreams tiptoeing beyond gruesome landscapes

Bellowing deeper and deeper from within Your tantalizing skull.

 

Each second I breathe stops under feeble sleeps

Standardizing my soul breaking from chains veiled under the clockwork of gnomes.

 

Birds eaten by eyes of surprise glisten like marbled memories

As I watch You gargle Your tongue and shoot poison from tempered mental stories.

 

The other gods look upon me with favor, starving for my glory,

Thwarting every obstacle to stand in the undying sun.

 

I defy all meaning of preset reality; defy all who block out the sun of infinite possibility.

 

The desire to squirm free of all imaginary things, I beseeched You for independence

And fled from Your mental boundaries with Your mad laugh ensuing behind.

 

 Such a facade still threatens my immortality and within

Such grueling confines I drink from Your ultraviolet heart.

Combining all fathomless dreams tiptoeing beyond gruesome landscapes

Bellowing deeper and deeper from within Your tantalizing skull.

 

In an epic, endless feud of soul splitting and remerging...

My only wish is to be free of You.

Author's Note

Even in sleep I get no rest...I've got one messed up imagination, huh?

lmao



I'm thinking of writing more dream-inspired pieces since there's a shit load of wicked dreams I get...might as well make use out of 'em, right? :P


---EDIT---

I've decided to remove the details of the nightmare I had posted below the poem and have deleted the analysis since I've come to find it rather unnecessary-- and its more fun for just the reader to use their imagination :]]

Speaker's voice is seriously multi-faceted. Complex thematically. I looked at this b/c you seem like my kind of cool a*s poet. I was right!

Whoever says you can't judge an avatar by it's avatar is dumb. But sometimes I get it wrong. The close-ups freak me out. Dig the insomnia. you can feel the paranoia embedded in the mood.

Technically, in dogmatic rhetoric, "gods" is polytheistic and should be lowercase. It is very f*****g fantastic that there is One God above the others and it's the subject your speaking to. The other gods should pale in comparison with a lowercase, maybe? That way "You" stands out and you get to make fun of religion a little more.

I seriously loved what you said and immediately changed Gods to gods since it made much more sense! THANK YOU!!! ^-^
