Im not big on titling the things I write if you couldn’t tell from the earlier posts. I think titles can give false pretenses of what the reader should expect from the poem. Just noting that.
Masterful flaws feed impassable gaps in reason
Leaves fall and rot with changing seasons
Heading no warning leaning toward breathing in silence
Weeding out fallacies can be tiresome, tedious work.
It can hurt, lurking doubts perk ears toward lies
Concrete facts persist behind closed doors
Under floors of more untruth, uncouth in nature
Sitting on paper doesn’t make lies truth.
Inferior fires burn reality on pyres of fallacy
Doubting the premises, missing dillemas
If the pills fake don’t take it
Forsake it
If it’s true embrace it and face it
Despite the pain it may cause.
The say the truth hurts
But lingering lies burn holes
Greater in numbers
#2
Abide by the rules
Filling me, grilling me for answers
Strarstuck prancers dancing with demons
Feeding evil, reading lines left unsaid
For the undead rhyme with ped-fed crimes
To the sun brother, miss the moon mother
Wrinkling sounds wrap around, serenity
Passing the torch, eating crumbs from a bigger truth
A better situation, completing lines, fear facing
Embracing the end, my friend
We’ve go time to kill
Lines to spill
Onto paper waiting to be vaporized
In time, be fine, in a prime to guide brides
To misfit matches, missing byzantine dreams
Wow. I’m not much of a poet, and it’s not my style to write these things, so there’s honestly not much I can do, other than sit here in mute appreciation for your art 🙂 But this is such a cool idea. The flexibility of poetry to express things you can’t say in prose is actually amazing– especially cuz they’re just the regular words we use. It’s funny how the change in structure can have such an impact on meaning.
