    Night's Demise

    my hands are pushing the pedal
    my feet desperately gripping the wheel
    im aimlessly steering this forged metel
    through crowded cracking streets
    where steel eagerly meets
    the unforgiving concrete

    twisting through treacherous turns
    trying to touch this tainted town
    which is abandened without concern
    these once crazed congested streets
    quickly left seeming incomplete
    are now, uneasily discreet

    driving dangerously deeply distraught
    doubting, distressed, distrusting death
    contemplating past, lost and hidden thoughts
    unknowingly forgetting to shift
    as i suddenly drunkenly drift
    into oncomming traffic...

    sinking swiftly unable to regain control
    my mind shaken, shaded memories fading
    grasping lifes hand, steadily loosing a hold
    succuming to constant dark temptations
    left me in this horrid situation
    can i reclaim salvation?

    my hands crushed beneath the pedal
    my feet crippled and curled within the wheel
    i lay admist this rusted heep of forged metal
    on silent stained streets
    my soul sorrowfully meets
    the unforgiving concrete

    Nice Mindless.Liked how you wrote this. Good emotional expression, on a decently abstract topic. Liked how you palyed this through. Wasn't feeling flow, but that doesn't matter in poetry to me, as long as emotion is there. Also greaet job with imagery. Nice job

    Imagery was excellent.....I could really feel the emotion. Also nice vocab. You really kept my attention on this piece, not really anything I could find wrong with it. Good Job.

    check my new piece out, I just finished it and could use some feedback.....thanx
