Tesselation Patterns Of Todays Youth

by Melpomene   Jan 13, 2008


Crashing waves torment wires interlocked with electricity,
As sparking jolts sizzle heart strings into acidic ashes,
Wire fuses dramatically like a snakes venom to the veins,
Hissing becomes unnatural behind curtains of insecurities,
While shocks of burning flames travel neurotically up spine.

Bath my skin in battery acid as conductors ignite my soul,
Currents flow through the body melting my lungs to dust,
Elevate the energy as lighting suddenly strikes pink cheeks,
Now dress me like your Barbie for plastic all have become,
And watch square tessellation patterns form before your eyes.

    Wow. Unfortunately, my simple brain hasn't quite managed to work out this poem yet. Frustratingly, I'm not sure it ever will properly but my mind lingers on vague ideas and emotions within your words. A really impressive write, with astounding imagery and so much is portrayed in just two stanzas. Another awesome piece.
