some unfinished poems from today's poetry club

####################

we twinge and gasp
grasp
and land upon a fiction
mild enchantment
seeming sound but void of reason
and so with game in play we continue into treason of our very nature biased information plague never-ending bring about the last season

In spite of truth
we fight
narrowing our vision
examples lay
in the food we eat, words spoken to our nation
catastrophe is simple burdened by causation and in truth it lays in minds misinterpreting bones to cause sensation

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Sadly depth of thought burdens none but the dead or dying
and so to grace our present with a choice of silence
vanished in those cells the voice of all cherished caged significance

&&&$$$$$((((((((($$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Chased-----> Already found new pride new strength
A voice
new ride
new sides to take, face slide into temptation
new place, new journey, rare shared by invitation
new form, new cloak, new rome or roaming ration
new race, new chase barred by litigation

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

And in pain
elapsed season after season
solitary evidence of one moment shroud in confusion

separated self
comatose consciousness
shocked into the dreary maddening emotionless

conformed
impressions of the entirety
judged in numbness

Enlightenment delayed
perchance
perhaps forever

looked upon as unfullfilled
unlock to find the treasure of a broken malnourished potential

salivate but do not taint
support against the weather often known to blow such potential over

unexcused unused roots broke now laid in clover
