Goblins dance across the wire
With blood red eyes and wings of fire
They beckon me to join their game
Join in the buzz and kiss the flame
My journey’s only just begun
The purple sky ignites the sun
We’ve chased the dragon – he’s on the run
Now flying high and having fun
The strobe light penetrates my brain
As music pulses through my veins
Got no more cares- Got no more fear
Coz everything I needs right here
I’ll take you where you’ve never been
Beyond the boundaries of all dreams
A mystery tour – enjoy the show
We’ll cut a line and share some blow
Enjoy the buzz – the music’s loud
Escape the madness of the crowd
But first of all let’s score a hit
Follow me – enjoy the trip
I’m flying high and looking down
In free fall now – I hit the ground
The spider laughs and spins her web
There’s no way out – she’s in my head
My body heaves and starts to shake
This nightmare dream I can’t escape
The spider whispers “your time has come
You’re in my web – my turn for fun”
The goblins’ stare – they point and jeer
Now relishing my wretched fear
We make a deal – I pay their toll
My life now spent – They take my soul.

- Comment from author about the poem: In my youth I witnessed some of my friends who were experimenting with drugs. Initially they believed they were having a great time however later on some got hooked and ended up almost destroying their lives. This poem reflects things from their point of view.

Very good write Andy (great name), I have never knowingly been near drugs in my long life but I can imagine that they can create such images as you have shown.

Thanks 👍 😊
Drat, I decided to look at one little harmless poem before I go to bed and I pick this one! Nice tour de force... maybe lyrics to an acid rock ballad?
Love the rock ballad idea.
Really appreciate your comments 😃
