#poetry madness bespoke madness takes many forms each uniquely designed  to exploit the deepest fears of the afflicted those who crave the peace of solitude are plunged into the hell of a chorus of alien voices chanting a discordant whirlwind of glossolalia that resolves into harsh commands urging the commission of unspeakable deeds implacable silence descends upon the unfortunates who fear isolation the world prisoned outside a fishbowl of glass so thick they can hear nothing nor can they be heard all made worse because they can see out but no one looks in and then there are the people like me we who wonder why   when our every reason for living is gone (swept away in tidal agonies that rush in night after night in the same unedited nightmare) we are still here our madness is subtle condemned to wake day after day into a world stripped of meaning and go through the motions of being alive when inside we carry nothing but the cold and heavy ashes of dreams  © 2014 RC deWinter  Published in @CallMeBrackets, December 2019

#poetry nightsong it's more than halfway  to daylight as i lie down to my rest and to sleep  if i can if i can  without you here though i can't see the slice of darkness  where you lie alone  in silence  you are tumbling in the river in the red red river running round my heart my skin warms to your presence and i taste your very essence  as i wrap you up in every shade of blue we're survivors of the flood baptized in pain  baptized in blood the holy water of surrender reborn with new eyes to look for love and now that we've found it we will never be without it how i long to kiss the questions from your mind someday soon i will hold you need no magick to unfold you as we melt into the mystery of one © 2017 RC deWinter Published in @CallMeBrackets April 2021
