Dolorous
Violence Seth

Dolorous
Heavy and heady the air,
Sufficient mead to bury,
The icy glass of thought here,
Another crow pesters, then
In a burst of flight, it's blackness wanders
Alone, I wonder where?
I've hunger for company now,
Is it my taste, pallet or tongue?
I crave the rolling hills
Like a half forgotten song, to breathe again
To sync into my readied heart.
The weight of life and it's exhaust pipes,
Coloring the happy white matte with colors to spare,
Content, I've nothing left to smear.
Leave it to wash outdoors in someone else's lot.
Sell it all for a few pound, on a beggar's spot,
I'll try to weave a new song, where once there was no sound.

sad poem but whats even sadder is most erep players like a middle aged Argentinean woman I met on erep are lonely or having boring lives and just come her to live their fantasies. Fantasies are an escape from reality but these lonely people may avoid reality but sooner or later it will hit them.
I hope you are not like any of them and have things going for you in RL. Its good to be sad but happiness is just around the corner 😉
Thanks for the response Bombay. I'm working a steady job, have a healthy relationship but sometimes it's worth expressing yourself when you feel down. I try to connect with everyone with whatever I write.
Hope all is good w/ you 🙂
Well yes I too am doing well now but when I was down I had the misfortune of meeting another woman who was depressed for 3 years and had insomnia...I thought most of erep players fall in that category as most have nothing important to do than to defend their BH and the number of medals on their profile is merely an ego boost they get because they are incapable of doing anything worthwhile in RL, sad but true 🙁
I am happy to know you do have a RL and a steady job. Most players in erep use money which isnt theirs and then fall in a debt trap! Nice poem considering you are a normal person and not a erep fanatic xD
I'm glad to hear that B.B, though I'm not surprised. You always seemed like a rock of a player if you don't mind me saying. This poem is directed at the creative insecurities I've been abhorring against myself. But it might read completely differently to someone else. Hopefully they enjoy the poem or even better, they get writing themselves. I can only imagine how nightmarish this game could become if it affected your RL in such a negative way as you detailed. Never pay, that's the way! 😛
Yes Seth, partly true. there was a time when I came to erep to find solace but I am glad that time is over. Now its just an old habit logging in here but some players esp the loners seek solace, love and much more from a gaming site like erep! I mean cmon arent there dating sites like Tinder for that? 😂
Yes your poem may have more than one interpretation and btw I have never spent a penny on erep. I am not like some who spend a major part off their salary on games like erep xD
Sh*t, I'm sorry if I offended you Bombay! It was most definitely not intended to sound that way. I think we all play this game for our own reasons and once we enjoy it, no harm, no foul. Outside of that, I think that the poem, however meager and silly it is, it could influence others to write even if it takes me pouring my guts and being a sad-case about it. Others will do better after me and eRep will have culture outside the Military/Politic sim it presents
Dont worry Seth, you never offended me in any way whatsover! and yes I am a rock of a player!
Cheers and Enjoy!

What a tune
What a nice poem,my friend Sethesin.I hope everything is ok now.I write as well sometimes though I do not read poetry that much.Also Bombay,much love to Armenia from Greece!!!
Idk why do I feel that there is more than one interpretation of "much love to Armenia from Greece!!!"
Lol,no.What I meant is that both our countries have been through a lot by the Turks so I kind of respect and like Armenia.
Sorry for doubting your intentions, I thought you were a friend of that wacko Argentinean lady who sings like a cow! 🤡
Respect back to you o7
I feel ya, expression is the way for release.
V!!
Nice poem
Cheers Clopo!
