Ephemeral Laments of Technicality
Ephemeral Laments of Technicality
Qualifications of a criminal mind
Magnifications of virtue in all of mankind
Qauntifications of meaning you cannot seem to find
Fractal notations in dreaming that you’d never leave behind
Geometric cubism born of Platonic Solids
Ego-centric hubris suppressing something rather horrid
Eccentric nudism expressing the inappropriately florid
Concentric prisms forming emotions that are torrid
Looking askance at a street performer
Booking your chance with a militant reformer
Hooking a dance with a brilliant rhythmic transformer
Cooking your political stance before I could even try to warn you
Alarmist cataclysms chiming from the top of an ancient tower
A harmless insubordinate praying for more power
The calmest monk in the monestary lining up for a shower
A brave warrior fiercely fighting who would never stoop to cower
Acrimony among the admired marriage made in heaven
Alimony for the children and a lucky number seven
Parsimony that killed them as the bread became unleavened
Hegemony rebel talk and the great theoretical pretend
Callous disregard for another man’s future
A fallice on the cards and a wound that needs a suture
A chalice that guards a place for motherly-kinds to nurture
A muesli or granola grade described as a sub-category called Bircher
The unrefined disgrace of man living on the edge
The poorly timed embrace for a lover who is dead
The badly mined face of another body filled with lead
The exquisitely refined grace that I feel inside my head
Famine and fortune finding the lucky and the damned
The Saccharine good nature of a boy offering his hand
The ill-defined muscular skeletal system of an old man struggling to stand
The shrill incline of communism in a foreign distant land
Premonitions and inquisitions that formulate a vision
Indecisions and impositions that propagate derision
Smooth renditions of musical genius that consummate precision
Ammunition, a small incision and the corruption in the police commission
Parliamentary platitudes performing pertinent intentions
Rheudumentary exactitude’s calling out for original inventions
Elementary attitudes hauling opinions through convivial conventions
Sentimental latitudes bawling over hypocritical condescension
Honorary Generals shipping out for war
Apothecaries of ephemerals giving meaning to what it’s all for
A singing canary on a pedestal leaning toward always wanting more
A womanly grieving chemicals seeming as though she’s falling to the floor
