Replying to a comment on:
Pollution (Free verse) by Firestarter
Abstractions tear my eyes away from the prize
I'm maladaptive to reason
rhymed between the lines
What use is a thought that cannot be
tasted?
Dabbled between stamp-licked envelopes and
sent away to a thoughtless massacre
We are all,
uninformed.
Art is the practice of, the expression of, the life of...
Art is nothing you can understand
until
you
have
been
crushed
by it.
Dots on a page, strings on a parcel
invoke the dance of martyrs
pleasurably spinning on wires
for the good of all.
Mimic! Puppeteer!
Your audience awaits.
The applause, the laughs, the empty integrity
of instant gratification.
Television screens flicker honesty so
calmly, my own
mind fades when
the headset is turned off.
Repulsion excretes from intestinal dystrophy,
yesterday's excuses spill out on the
conclusive cement
Suicide would've been cleaner,
worthless creationist.
Now, there is no excuse
for the garbage
polluting our minds.
