Release me unto a million blows
In here we all throw a fit
So fast the chaos and panic grows
Spinning webs to catch decay
Circle around to escape ourselves
We fall down tangled in pain
Trampled, broken, and bruised as hell

Comfort gives way to wild
Who says that peace is mild

The flames are kissing my flesh
I feel the blisters are bubbling
They pus up, pop, and peel
Then heal again for new suffering
This eternal bath does not cleanse
I melt away into everything
A puddle left at the feet
Of the one who has nothing

We sway, the crowd goes wild
For today we're born hell's child

Freedom sits
Down in the pit
Down in the pit
Down in the pit

Down In The Pit

I'm free down in the pit
Release me unto a million blows
In here we all throw a fit
So fast the chaos and panic grows
Spinning webs to catch decay
Circle around to escape ourselves
We fall down tangled in pain
Trampled, broken, and bruised as hell

Comfort gives way to wild
Who says that peace is mild

The flames are kissing my flesh
I feel the blisters are bubbling
They pus up, pop, and peel
Then heal again for new suffering
This eternal bath does not cleanse
I melt away into everything
A puddle left at the feet
Of the one who has nothing

We sway, the crowd goes wild
For today we're born hell's child

Freedom sits
Down in the pit
Down in the pit
Down in the pit

Hi, Jason. Your poem is very discriptive and unsettling. I don't want the pit or that kind of freedom. You do a fine job of writing. I will be back to read your other poems. Bizzy

The starting eight lines are great...I liked it. Good work!

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
