Sadness

written by Harley Stagner

Sadness, sadness through the deep void of time
The maddening madness of the rhythmic rhyme.
In space - deeply, darkly, dwelling
Lies the demented destiny of man's swelling
Satiric, scandalous mind.
indingm withering, wisping thoughts come from behind.

Confusion sets in
Of what man's life has not been
Dying alone on his ego-tripped throne

Not one friend at his marker
As memories grow darker
They taurnt and tease him
Never to please him.

Patterns upon patterns of fears in his mind.

Sadness, sadness through the deep void of time
The maddening madness of the rhythmic rhyme.
