Watching from up close and from afar - 3/3

~ Inspired by the novel the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea by April Genevieve Tucholke ~

We watch with bated breath

Slowly the sea king becomes in charge of the river

The same old river but also a different one

The sea is still there in the form of a sliver

We’re all tainted by death

Madness isn’t mysterious

Its different in reality than in a book

No longer intriguing but still dangerous

Some of us willingly catch madness’ hook

We all eventually end up being somewhat delirious

Change slowly comes

The adventure is no longer so innocent

The violent tendencies scare

How did we end up in this predicament?

Listen to his eerie hums

Glistening orbs shatter

We all become delusional

Nothing and everything makes sense

Why is this chaos so beautiful?

He’s mad as a hatter

Hopeless and helpless

Not one of us should have been so careless

Missed the signs but saw it coming from miles away

Determined to fix things in our uncertainty

While being too aware of our mortality

Watching from up close and from afar - part 1/3

       I really enjoyed this project I did a few years ago in high school. Thought I’d share it! ~Inspired by Devil and the Deep Blue Sea written by April Genevieve Tucholke ~

Madness used to be mysterious

Something found in a book

Intriguing and dangerous

Catches you unexpectedly with a hook

It was said to render one delirious

It hides behind masks of confidence

Lurks inside playful eyes

Draws you in

Feeds you pretty lies

It messes with your conscience

You know something is different

For now, that’s irrelevant

Enjoy the adventure while it lasts

Ignore the little voice

Follow the wild choices
