PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

traveling through a wayward winter's like that of

a wordless night

I take to the open road like one of many fearless

soldiers battling a crumbling nation's plight

for so many angles I feel I must find different eyes

for which to view each one

the unblinking man squanders my logic's embrace

even as my tears are burned dry by the sinister rays

of a misunderstanding sun

so very much is currently going on in my haphazardly

unhinged head

and it seems to be happening all at once in some form

of a slow motion frame

I can't seem to recall just where each path before

had me lead

but most likely I will instinctively take the one even if unmarked

as doubtless self blame

for me it has always been implode everything at all costs before

the punch manages to get one cruelly up on you

and expect nothing in return for any depth felt emotion

or good deed done

no one will get hurt and destiny will sadly see you through

'A Close Feeling To That Of Hell'

perhaps

but life just all the same

it helps but only just so little

when you are clearly able to find far few faults

with the on going game............
