We Do Not Write About (What We Do Not Know)

Contributed by faithmairee on Wednesday, 11th February 2004 @ 07:23:52 PM in AEST
Topic: dedicatedpoems




we do not write about
what we do not know
the so-called visionaries
in a frantic world
savoring chances taken
mourning lost opportunities
advancing with unmatched passion
a mere reflection of our double-life

we do not write about
what we do not know
but of the esoteric
world inside our heads
of displaced bullets
or the bothersome sometimes
bullheaded black holes in our souls

we do not write about
what we do not know
but of pain and suffering
or pleasure (possibly pure ecstacy)
and sometimes someone listens
to the stirrings of our soul

our souls are the visions of our hearts and the way we feel just as you have placed these words here about all of us that write on this site... well done.

Excellent, very well done. One has to walk the walk before writting it. Thanks for sharing.

I do. I write about lots of things I don't know. But in the very same sense I know them without ever experiencing them--why would I, when I have a world full of annals for me to refer to? The archives of poetry make all we ever need, recording every figure and form into vibrant terminology.

Well said.


"Ephemeral dreams and perpetual ire; melodious lies from eternity's lyre."
~The Palatine Poet

Thats good, but it would be better set to rhyme. Don't you like poetry that rhymes?
I do.
