hollow monument

Contributed by elle on Sunday, 29th March 2009 @ 10:18:21 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



magnet of disregard. . .

baby, oh baby in the closet

you'll fit, so perfectly

into the adulterated version.

enter in.

pace yourself

brace yourself

hard as steel

hard to swallow. . .

deceit packaged as lies.

shelved

pushed back

label bleeding lies.

beware the infantile print.

you'll be smitten

by the smaller,

absurd ambiguities.

caustic

toxic

tested on humanities.

geiger counter, ticking.

malfitting.

no pledge can soften

no shadow cast

can reconfigure, radically.

baby of the stick figure

how do you reach

your destiny???

tested on humanities..no pledge can soften, no shadow cast can reconfigure'"...
I don't know who is this baby of the stick figure..but this poem is beautifully dark and smites like steel on the face of the baby...
very powerful.:-)venkat

This one scared me. Perhaps I should not print it publicly why, but it did. But if I'm right, powerful.
