A Foolish Creation


The sun gossips.
I eavesdropped to hear this scorching vixen say,
“Earth’s inhabitants and the catastrophe!”
“They are wild and insignificant.”
“They are unfortunate and without fire.”
“They will not last.”


She is cruel and relentless in her hushed speech.
She secretly hates them with lava heat.


The sun pleasurably listens to the moon’s scandalous talk.
"These beings are infinitesimal and the ugliest of art.”
“They are foolish and ephemeral.”
“They don’t know their insignificance.”

 These two globes are a pair of conspirators.
A pair of cataclysmic companions who know our final day.  

 The stars listen to this intrigue.
They say very little in our defense.
They are enthralled spectators in this cosmos conversation.

 Suddenly, the greater universe breaks into the conversation to say,


“Sun, you are lonely because you will never know love.”
“Moon, you have nothing to hold.”
“Stars, you are spineless and cold.”
“These humans are His and you have been fooled.”

Bought

Anthem of heaven incased in this CD on the market. A devotion song reformed to a green collection in his pocket. Culture how it has sought us! Taken our reverence and bought us! Worship sowing designer clothes for the artist. Melodies in bondage begin to simulate the masses. We have the radio to blare the repeat. Give us our fame and retreat This noise of adoration motivates a half hearted beat on the steering wheel. We can no longer own the heart and we can’t preach our message. We are just a copy of a man’s heart once spilled to His maker given over to another to do as he so pleases. We are bought. Owned. I want to work on this one. It seems a little hard to follow. I want it to be concrete and to the point but still lyrical. Any comments or suggestions?

Shy Suicide

Disclaimer: This poem was inspired by someone else's struggle with suicide. Don't worry I am not suicidal. Suicide, why do you hide beneath my white skin? Suicide, why do use my fake smile for your sin? Suicide, why do you keep your cover until the rope is tight, the trigger is pulled, the pills are swallowed, the wrists slit? A black phantom behind my face. A dark word behind my lips. A night in my day. Suicide, why do you ensnare all my companions? They didn’t know. They didn’t see. They didn’t recognize who had overtaken me. You left a message on paper; they read in disbelief. Suicide, you are shy, and yet you have the audacity to kill me.

Glorious Grey

 Glorious grey with your thematic expectations and sudden revelations. Many depend on your bland expression, hoping for a hidden salvation. Are you a subtle manipulator or a passive observer? Your color may not be color, making your theme perplexing. Glorious grey don't pollute the clear water. We find you in ash, rain clouds, and cement. Calling you neutral may not be correct.
