Midnight

By tylerdurden 00

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Amidst the slumber my numb mind reigns, I still play victim to the raw hour that nibbles at tonight. Tomorrow, seductive and revised, looks to me with Eyes of pity. Its silence finds no vacancy among my tire. And I find no solace in Daffy Duck, Yet he does eat the hours well. Him and hair removal products. And the finger that disperses these words is a descending one, Knowing that each word will be more blurry than the last. But darkness will not come. And now I will return to Time's bidding, Seeking exhibits that will attire the night. The sun my enemy, yet I await it, I hope darkness ensues....I can't sleep!!!!!!!!!!!
