Replying to a comment on:

Time Imperfect (Free verse) by MacFrantic

Beset upon by faith and dependency No love for the loveless today Arrangement by way of estimation Time slowing to clutch busy souls A head swimming with gratification Marbles left somewhere in Arizona Poison seeping through fleshy cracks Broken tones embedded in swollen eardrums Night falls beneath an earthly sunset As dawn blooms above a filthy vagrant Shirtless cowboys feasting on ghosts Adolescent rebels bearing themselves Grace bowing to sympathetic cause Derailed principles with true aim A swamping greed closing in fast While time ends at a razor-thin crossing

Nope.

I receive from this poem a singular horrific vision of a sick punctuationless existence. But then, I've not actually read it, just kind of squinted my eyes at it awhile.
