Insult to Injury

Contributed by Jyssvw on Tuesday, 11th July 2006 @ 04:38:59 PM in AEST
Topic: oops



Adding insult to my wounds
Tucked under eyelids
Salt poured in autonomous silence

Tonsils ripped with chords to shreds
The snap of two fingers demands respect
And so the received revenge I am soon to get

Practice futility
While embracing the utility of the mind
The trance that inflicts the prophesies of our faithful kind

Linguistic logic says
A metaphor on to itself is dead
A mirror image of exactly what was previously just said

Interpreted by the eyeball
Processing images of relevant consequence
Avoiding the false positive, ultimately, negating the initial hypothesis

A heap of heavens gold
Sits on a chest of the larger life force
Giving credence to the struggle and the unbearable cost

very few are daring enough, to venture your mind jyss..
and that is shameful-
nevermore, will they know the meaning of words such as:

"autonomous silence"
"Tonsils ripped with chords to shreds"
and..
"A metaphor on to itself is dead
A mirror image of exactly what was previously just said"

and the latter, has me now, wondering.. what it's all for anyway..

I'd have posted this under the: "have poets question their targets and calling" category.. lol
this is deep bro.. and so much so, that I may not take another step, till I figure it out, completely-

Your TRUE, and #1 fan-

Billy
