An Experiment in Free-Writing

From the deep dark sewage depths
the cavernous yawning jaw
rank breath shuddering
sucking
wild tongue searching finding groping
probing depths
murky secrets
slimy dark untold truths

a single spark swallowed but fights
it fights back against the crushing wave
of ignorance
of impulses aborted restrained
crammed under the tattered rug
and it grows fed by the darkness
a dark light
it blooms
shining petals
criss-crossing glinting beams
absorb the dark
the dark is fading surrendering
the light is taking over
grasping tendrils wrap around the darkness
the shape of darkness?

the light pulls deep
the mouth
the light has a mouth
oh dreadful mouth
and it too probes
reaches too far too much
finds the switch
seizes control
routines evaporate
pretensions fail
nerves jerk
bones gyrate
fingers jab up and down
a beautiful hatred
self-destructive bliss
the light is all

a puddle remains
once a deep dark and stormy sewer

vomit on the paper
misshapen masses
forms complex in disorganization
it dries
empty
what remains?

agony
freedom
multidimensional beauty
again the dark beauty
just an impression
a footprint of the awful terrible magnificent annihilating light
spawned from monsters
and the dangerous dark.
