It’s imposable to comprehend,

The Gamut of anything,

But I believe, with art,

We can at least begin.

Education is a system,

Designed to inculcate,

But really it enforced,

My desire to create.

If ever I’m punctilious,

Please bring me up to task,

People are annoying,

When they’re talking out their ****.

His voice,
Staring at me,
With awful,
Questioning eyes,
I dared not turn,
I dared not answer.

Snatched back

From the icy talons,

Of deathless sleep,

Or sleepless death.





Heartbeat pulsing in my ears,

Rattling in my chest.





Leaving me helpless,

Heatless,

Struggling to catch up,

Unawares.





And now I lay awake,

Trapped in fear,

Knowing I am unable take,

My final breath.

And here am I,

So terrified by the scale of it all,

That I must escape into banality.
Tansy Roake Jul 2017
I see in varied clarity,
As fog evades reality,
I dot my Is,
and cross my Ts

Yet still this world alluding me,
Is not the same one that you see.

Transfixed,
But no desire to flee,
I’m dancing with insanity.
