Poetry Because Apollo Made Me Do It

Poetry Section | Because Apollo likes to sing

Welcome to my Poetry Section! Here is where you’ll find the links for my poems.

They are all posted on my Vocal Media profile. However, they are not organized by series. So, to save you from doom scrolling, use this page as a reference.

I will try to update this list every week (I post a new poem every other day on Vocal Media).

Shout out to one of my faves, Phoebus Apollo 🖤

Thanks for singing these poems, guiding me with composing music, and showing me different types of art.

A true bestie here. xo

  6. Holier Than Thou

Note from me:
Before you start reading, I would like to disclose that these “songs” are purely fictional, and has dark undertones.
You see, I am blessed and/or cursed with nightmares and dreams every night. Call Me Ms. G! is one of the songs that play in my nightmares. Unfortunately, I cannot remember the melody during my waking hours. All I remember was that the genre would most likely fall under Gothic Rock.
Anyway, in my manic state, I got up at 3 am every day to write down the lyrics!
Would you believe me when I say that it’s a whole album?
In my nightmares, I remember perusing through “the variant” of Spotify. Then there I saw the album called Holier Than Thou – The Nightmare Melodies.
P.S. The album logo is almost identical to my book cover House of Trials – Soul Exchange

Holier Than Thou – Nightmare Melodies Series

Note from me:
The struggle to keep the Spirit motivated is a tricky one.
Although we do our best to heal our wounds, the shadows of the past are always present.
Sometimes, these shadows inspire us to create or fight for change.
