Worm

Post by Andeh » April 11th, 2007, 9:15 pm

Jumbled together individual letters collected to form of love, mind sweat, invisible tears
papers on Africa, odes to dead young men
inside a silver box spilled upon with nonalcoholic drink
and paperclip dents

slowly he creeps from a mind of a young evil hacking genius
crawling anonymously through my files eating away at my stories' soul

The next day I am unaware of the blankness of a dark-shadow dream
I pull up my creativity- the evidence- it is gone

Left I am with a blank screen paper
Alone I am with memories of writing
I curse then thank the slithering cyber one
which forced me to start anew with words

A mixed blessing

I don't know what to say
except I enjoyed reading it
and I am sorry too.

Probably does not relate but I am reminded of an essay called The Worm of Consciousness.
