Closing Night

The spotlights were burning A hole in my heart It finally broke through As the curtain call starts My blood spilling out Onto the stage Mounting my raw feet To the place I've been caged I don't want let out I'm happier inside With fevrent song and dance Instead of thoughts of demise But alas my run was over With no way to delay it A druggie's sensual lust Had me take one last hit Letting it seep in Through my lungs down to my toes Each chord and vibration Making my eyes astutely close.

There is no such word as fevrent, perhaps, it is a mis-pelled or you meant to use the word fervent. putting that aside I consider this a well written poem.

very good, I like the description and the emotion that comes from it, short and sweet well maybe not sweet, but still very good..keep it up.

Thank you!

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
