Emergancy Exit... (A ROUND ROBIN POEM)
Inspired by SCRIBBLER! just post 1 stanza at a time to continue the poem. Let's see where this goes.
Groping in the darkness...
Where is it? WHERE IS IT!?!
Looking for the cold release of steel.
Frantic in the search for death.

3rd stanza
Too many false starts mark my arm
from other shouts for help or aid
all too shallow for real harm
now where's that sharper blade?
I'll need others to cut and paste this together. NEXT! lol

7th stanza (greedy Rhiannon!)
The inevitable psychosis
is positive osmosis
of brain cells dead
positive dread

Rhiannon, may I suggest you put together what we have here
in one poem, then decide whether to continue or you write an end verse,
cheers,

one last stanza, first come first serve
Groping in the darkness...
Where is it? WHERE IS IT!?!
Looking for the cold release of steel.
Frantic in the search for death.
in frantic reckless
there is only shit
to search to feel
they find only crystal meth
Too many false starts mark my arm
from other shouts for help or aid
all too shallow for real harm
now where's that sharper blade?
No fear a slow release
Red ribbons of grace descend
Give me my self
Let me go damn you

Cold death grips my tongue
Your voices will cease
I sink away from you
Into this hellish abyss
Now embalmed in darkness
there is no fear of death
with all worldly sins
now light years away...
