Nevermore Poem by Khaldun Atum

Nevermore



Moon shine leaks from the dark night sky,
Dripping into such a wild animal's eye.
But no more than unto men shall it dim its light,
For a mere mortal shall never see such a night.

Thy gazing reflection, a beacon unto thine man,
As thee stood pondering, wondering over such a span
Of time and angels where they collide,
And bring forth the end of time.

Fire, dust and acre blending beforth,
What is this punishment, abandonment in the north,
In all thy years you hast flown by,
I regret nothing, I will survive.

Of what has become, the earth no more,
Mice squeak and parished aboard,
& by thy name, of you Lenore,
Men hve faded, Nevermore.

Birds fly through the sky,
Here now; gone in the link of an eye
Remains of life, shredded, left behind,
All the lies lay and die,
These memories; Lets never rewind.



I wrote this poem off the top of my head, not focusing on sentence structure or even making sense. Prett much, whatever word flew into my mind, I wrote it down. Enjoy

'I wrote this poem off the top of my head, not focusing on sentence structure or even making sense. Prett much, whatever word flew into my mind, I wrote it down.' This is what the surrealist poets in the first half of the last century were doing. Try looking at Andre Breton, Paul Eluard and Robert Desnos. The poem Cascade by Robert Desnos is my personal favourite.
