Poetry Blogs (paranoia)

One thing I now know for sure,
a pandemic fuels power trips and paranoia.

Takes you back to first grade when everyone, 
except your best friend, had cooties. 

Playground bullies made all the rules, 
their favorite game was keep away. 

You better listen to them, 
or you will rue the day.

You wore Halloween masks, 
through suffocating sweat.

Take it off,
no candy you get.

in the room full of camera’s

unexposed photographs turn,

they do not stay still- how they breathe

A child,

One only the devil could produce,

Had arrived with the diseased name

Of Depression.

8th grade was the year Depression made friends

Suicidal Tho...

Through the window

a star less night,

only gloom and stillness.

A shadow

moves in

the hollow.

Across the clearing

a pair of red

flaming eyes!

They seem to

float through the

air.  The

fear, the horror!

I close my

eyes afraid to

look.  Afraid of

what I might see!

Hi everybody
