Toppling the obstacle

Lessons abound, all around

being enveloped by the

sound.

image

The voice of

remorse

has no recourse

and is rendered

hoarse, dysfunctional, inconsequential.

image

All the while

dutifully searching, sifting

finding

polish, luster, mustering

the

fortitude, sense of purpose, courage

required to forage

through the charred wreckage

of

disaffected egoes.

Beholdened to that

which controls you, but…

Freedom beckons, the reckoning in 5… 4… 3… 2…

The silence, solace…

Questions deafen,

the discovery

of

the immutable obstacle

image

irrefutable

in its puissance

but common sense

reveals

YOU.

As the

fuel, foil

and

architect of your demise.

Recognizing that the

time

has arrived.

For the opening

of our eyes

to the fact

that we were

hypnotized.

      Do you really so Marra? I really appreciate that. I was concerned that it was mirroring my other pieces too closely.

        No I think it’s great. And sometimes your pieces are allowed to be similar if they still manage to give different things sometimes. I love the way you approach your poetry it’s specific but it’s limitless to me because it’s so easy to play around with
