Untitled 18 (Free verse) by PopoyMola

i wonder often what is the purpose... of life, of love, of so many different things... they keep crawling like spiders in my head they keep coming without a sense of retribution i felt insane amidst the beat in my head i am alone often in the jungle of clairaudience... sensing things, hearing sounds that lingers... i wish there was silence to condole my grievances, but silence is my haunter i could not run from i dwell in a room i call escapism, for there are so many things i could not understand why do i live in solitude? why do i run? why so many suffer in a flick of a dime? why does God permit wickedness throughout? why i ... why do i live to die? sometimes i sit in a corner like a scared brat incapable to love yet always trying hard to die without a bit of purpose; my incubus to live without a pinch of sense; my succubus am i just a machine that God plays?... or a mud of clay that grimes astray? i know many live just like me for some reason we are pointless smokes... to live to die... i don?t know why... for i am lost in this world of lie...

"clairaudience" - thank you, good word.

"hearing [a] sound[s] that linger[s]" you are allowed one "s"

"condole" while a word, is awkward here (console).

haunter - unusual, and usualy apostrophied.

well. it's very heavy in vocab, and the subject is done and done and done - but somehow this rises a bit above the usual ... crap, for lack of a better word.

Another example of, "in the valley of the blind, the one-eyed man is king".

You get an 8 for making me go to the web 3 times to look things up.
