Meltdown

Tristan Robert Lange

A little meltdown
I did just meet,
Would not set me down
Onto my feet.
 
It tossed me and turned
My smile around;
It stuck me, it burned,
It will resound.
 
It twisted my brain
And knocked me up;
It drove me insane
And did erupt
 
Into phantasm.
The swirling sign—
Broke through in darkness—
Shades what was mine.

  • Comment from author about the poem: I am currently working on a major poetic work, an epic horror narrative poem with intricate meter and rhyme scheme, and this process has been both challenging and rewarding. This little poem here captures a bit of a metldown I had during one of my writing sessions. #ItHappens

    Slightly more than a dissociative spell then?
    I must say your write plus picture left me feeling slightly…Vague memories of similar many moons ago.
