A Silent Rage

Contributed by alister on Thursday, 3rd March 2005 @ 05:10:45 PM in AEST
Topic: ambiguous

Who deserted this forsaken earthworm,
Helpless, on this acidic inferno of a sidewalk?
His voice is too small to reach the
Complacent giants orchestrating earthquakes.
There are many words to grab angst’s spinal cord to shock,
But a kick or sand thrown in the face is easily understood.
Love is an abstraction:
Will you find a glass orchid in a forest
If you marched through trenches of bog in high spirits or
Climbed through overgrown weeds that lacerate your shins?
Lower me like a fireman resigns his clumsy hose;
If you are a lion do not taunt me.
Pretend to bite into a ripe peach; its sweet saccharine.
I’m not invincible but invisible.
I’m a storm lingering.
You be the Guillotine.
I’ll even slide my head through for you.
Four letters: illuminated green. EXIT.
Don’t leave me unchanged.
Cars speeding along;
Could I be that benefit to another?
Will it hurt?
Ask my name and simultaneously turn your back.
Keep to yourself like an aged grandmother knitting.
Behind that well-crafted
Plaster is an absurd soul.
Run away as if you’re pursued in
Texas with a chainsaw roaring a mantra behind:
“I will separate you from your well loved joints.”
Indulgence is a killer.

nice poem.

While every care is taken to ensure the general sites content is family safe, our moderators cannot be in all places; all the time. Please report poetry and or comments that are in breach of our site rules HERE (Please include poem title or url). Parents also please ensure that you supervise your children well when they are on the internet; regardless of what a site says about being, or being considered, child-safe.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
