Inferiority Complex

Contributed by hauntedscorp on Friday, 6th January 2006 @ 03:47:16 PM in AEST
Topic: abstract



Dripping in simmered, peroxided anecdotes
which lend privy to sporadic leniancy
Cursed speech- peppered with offhanded quotes
the snatcher of time burrows d e e p, (But denies clemency)

Beware! The festering gap-toothed smile of naivety
behold the blueprints of an obnoxious construction
Overabundance of morose, unchartered creativity
soaking in shimmers of a cast-out production

Frowning in hints of a taste that didn't quench
(Salty crevice in the back corner of despair)
Bended knee boomerang of a tyrant's monkey wrench
balance precariously on the steel-toed trap, wanting to ensnare

Actions born out of drunken tangent's of sobriety
impede the running legs of the outstretched sleeve
Juggle those dark needs of nauseous, wanton, propriety
crawl to the surface of living, to diplomatically bereave

Shrug off a veil of incomplete, yet, controlled inconsistency
evidence gathering; an arduous study, however diligent
The raging flames lick at the edges rather flirtatiously
neglectful of sentimental value, it crisps to a burn- persistent

Galloping analysis of devotion continues to proceed
observing dusted shades of a methodical exterior
Rhythmic sways of truth crash, and then recede
The final diagnosis: You were found to be inferior.

Okay, I have to read that again. I think the last two lines brought it all together for me but...uh, I have to read it again after reading it twice already.

I know one thing...I kept thinking....if you ever open a restaurant I'm never going there. ;-)

Scorpy, I am left a little speechless here. There is so much going on in this bare all piece. So much emotion in every line. Love, and/or disappointment maybe? The third stanza seems to hint at that at least. Or I'm misreading this. It's just wonderful either way. Excellent poem Scorp, veiled or not.

I don't understand it at all, unfortunately.

What I do know though, is that this called to me, that it drew me in on every word, and that I wanted to understand. I do know that the understanding isn't important though.

Good write, I find it rather unique, and it's nice to see when so many of the writes on this site sre the same, nowadays.

*hugs*

I must say you obviously have much to let out. I hope never to be on the receiving end of your anger!
This peice is so....full! there is so much to it, in it, in you.

Ah, now... I've been here before, Scorpichachitabean. I slipped out without a word --- too tired, I was, to be able to fully absorb this or leave a half way decent comment. I can't promise I'll do any better now, but... here goes ---

I have to tell you, I think the bestest thing about this is the you-can't-miss-it tone (which, IMHO, is so often the case with your work). This gallops along a interesting and thought provoking path --- and does so with conviction, I'd say. In terms of tone, I 'hear' (feel) more than simple "anger" here... I'm certain there is more, much much more to it. 'Anger', then, just seems too simple a word - and is perhaps not entirely accurate, I'm inclined to think. I'd argue (and I'm being quite brash here, I know) that if it were simply anger being expressed here - this, as it is, would not have existed. Some part of me wants to say (which is also bold, admittedly) that I may know this feeling --- and it is both unnameable and complex, I think.

There is much here that impressed me --- not the least of which, Scorpidoo, is your bravery.

*hugs*

Best last line EVER!!

Scorparino .. this was definitely abstract, but the emotions in it were not. I feel you. And
only you know how much I relate. Each line, dripping with a kind of disdain. Like that
of one who is fed up with it all. Fed up with the complacency and dishonesty of a
trusted soul. Fed up with always being the one to give. And eternally being the one left to
pick up the pieces ....
Yup ... there sure is anger in here, but also a sadness. A sadness that, once felt and
removed, makes us so very glad to be alive. Wonderfully emotive piece Scorpy.

I agree with Snem. Your bravery is astounding. And
your talent is boundless, chicklet!

*many, many hugs*

This is imagery and beyond...
phrases like:

"which lend privy to sporadic leniancy
Cursed speech- peppered with offhanded quotes"

and:

"Galloping analysis of devotion continues to proceed
observing dusted shades of a methodical exterior"

..absolutely brilliant is the diction in stanzas 2 and 4...
The whole piece was magnificent-I think..the best I've read from you yet.

Divinely Inspired-

Truly..

Scorp,

First of all I want to say, I hope you are ok. I haven't seen you submit many poems, which I miss, nor have I experienced any of your insightful comments.

Regarding this poem, Inferiority Complex, it seems paradoxical that it is very complex in spite of the inferiority focus. It's almost as if the abstract complicated structure and content are demonstrating that your work is not only not inferior; but superb.

Words that stand out for me as possible themes are: anecdote, naivety, despair, diplomacy, needs, inconsistency and rhythmic. Is there an anecdote for despair? Perhaps diplomacy for the inconsistencies. And needs that are frustrated, etc......

Anyway, super write.

Will, who misses your work and input.

Judging by your title this is aimed at yourself.If I'm right that's more than harsh.Nothing very inferior about this write...nothing at all,
