Throwing Off a Magic Lantern by ~shroomish:iconshroomish:





From nowhere I come and to nowhere I go

Where demons, within demons, within demons, within demons, within demons, within demons, within demons, within demons, within demons, within demons,
                       within demons,           within demons,          within demons,
        within demons,                   within demons,                within demons,                             within demons,           within demons,                                 within demons,                                    within demons,    within demons,                   within demons,
                                                 within demons,

Walk upon the beach under stained-glass skies
Wither, I can not tell
With a swimming motion, they have me carried away

  just  
under
the
surface.

Today, I am.

What happens to a dreamy earth where there are
one hundred things you haven’t dreamed of?

Author's Comments

I scrambled piece fo poetry partially put together with poems from a textbook. I want to thank Joy Kogawa especially, just because what she does is so pretty. So there.

There some line breaks that are intended to be there, but stupid dA couldn't do that for me well enough. Sorry, I am a picky bastard at times... *am sad*

The poetry ends with a question. It is not a bad idea, the reader answers itself to way...
Good work .

In un'epoca di pazzia, credersi immuni dalla pazzia è una forma di pazzia
In an age of madness, believing oneself to be immune from madness is a form of madness itself

Thank you. This piece was kind of unique, so it let really let me be free and run crazy with it. The line breaks in the "within demons" section are really crappy, though. I'm just not good at transferring Word documents to Deviantart. Gah.

Still, thanks again.

This is not the beginning
This is not the end.
It simply Is.

Be Here Now.

i really love the last line.

That Love is all there is,
Is all we know of Love.
:iconshroomish:
I agree, one of the best formulations in the entire poem. I wonder what the hell I was thinking when I brought up the demons...

possibly...
'hey, demons has a ring to it, i think i'll write it out a bunch of times'
but it works.

That Love is all there is,
