Dio Writes

Passionate, or perhaps just a bitch

Full of broken glass and fire

Opinionated, vocal, unrelenting

A sprinkling of sex for flavor

A fiction, touching on truths

That I didn't mean to disclose

In this, a timeline darkened by despair

I see a people, not bound by threat of violence

But addicted to thier oppressors' chains

And I wonder; would they celebrate their freedom

Or beg those from who they've been freed

To make them into slaves once more?

In which the strange and unusual continues and Dio gets a little weirded out.

One does not make a deal with the devil

And expect to come out unscathed

But with the light of this world guttering

Perhaps it is time to arm myself

With the knowledge that she can provide

I do not turn away from the light

I embrace darker measures for darkest times.

I remember my younger self

Knowing that I could never be enough

Perpetually dissatisfied, despairing

My unworthiness writ in every failure.

To she who struggled with despair

Who sought unattainable perfection

Trapped in a cycle of self-hatred

Looking for peace that would never arrive:

Listen

You have ALWAYS been enough

And you ARE worthy of love

Perhaps if I tell you then

Someday, I'll believe me too.

Evils once contained

Have broken free of their prison

And fascism, cruelty

Are ascendant, have risen

In mythology, heroes

Kept their darkness at bay

But reality's crueler

Complacency created these days

“Take a day or two to feel sorry for yourself when the worst happens, and then… figure out how you are going to win.”

That is my advice to myself in most things. Sometimes life goes off the rails and everything sucks and the temptation to just throw up my hands and surrender is tempting. But I mean, I’ve never learned how to give up, not really, and my sliiiiight stubborn streak refuses to allow me to quit. So yeah, maybe stuff sucks at the moment and maybe I’m having to work out a plan. But… there is good in this to be had, you know?

I don't know how to quit; I've failed in so many ways, so many times and I still pick myself up, spitting blood and ready to fight. Some people say that makes me brave or I don't know, heroic but I think I just don't like to lose.

What I write, invisible

Or mostly so

Poetry

Prose

Diatribes

Sex

Unseen, unread

These truths

Ephemeral monuments

Fading fast

Disappearing

Fragments in time

Glimpses of me

Lost
