Dead
This place is dead
Walking, waking death
Existing, not living
In the real, not the ideal
Counterfeit, not genuine
Complacency the culprit
The killer be contentedness
Death in the daylight
The night brings the end
But a different light is here
Brilliant
Vibrant
Unquenchable
Radical
Alive
It carries us to life and beyond

Wow.
That's all I have to say.
Actually, i'll say more...that was seriously really good. I love where you placed the line breaks. I think if you would have submitted this in my college creative writing class, you would have gotten an "A". It a great example of contemporary poetry.
