affected poem

a moral attribute on a silent night when rats are afar








a moral attribute on a silent night

when rats are afar

 

 

 

 

 

as some fain would regroup

themselves to

shun western civilization

to humbly ascertain

a supreme level

of sophistication

 

or refinement

 

 

as both shared a value

called garden paths

and farm tracks

only to boastfully

till them in the

zone

 

 

a no-go

indeed








likened to a weekender bag

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

likened to a weekender bag

 

 

 

it took me, like you took me,

and when I had taken you

 

..for granted

 

 

 

it always seemed like

holding up that

glass,

for a toast

 

but aren't we drinkers,

you may ask?

 

 

 

I pooled in my

moneys and have

not paid the landlord

because here's my anxiety:

socialism and communism

are planned

by the moral overlord


 

how can we survive

my gentle blowball,

in this shifty stream of

consciousness?

 

 

 

but my being logoleptic

is crucial,

lets me save myself


of a semiotic-

turned-poetic

 

..exulansis
