Poem for my neon guitar consorts (Free verse) by DreamerSupreme
Drifted in the depths of night-
took to the grind
of metal guitar & copper drums;
coursing through destitute slums
littered with neon liquer shops-
twisted herb spliff dangling
whilst lips furled laughter
in surreal placidity.
That was my reality
unshakable untill serene faces
of those close mouldered
became weary & alienated
or acquired despair.
Death gripped those
that could no longer continue,
but even then those days
were the best as we endured
in tribute to those that couldn't.
Most of them have withered
and faded away- don't know how
or why, but does it matter?
All that does is them good days
when naivety was bliss
since now I've learned the score
laughing in remembrance and
hoping those still alive
who stood with me then
find wiser peace & good fortune
in their future.
