I write because my time is limited and my imagination is not.
The unwatched watcher Unseen eyes see everything You should be ashamed
By D. J. Reddall4 months ago in Poets
Nothing else you make Makes me as comfortable Narrative as nest ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The monstrous darkness frightened me at first Shadowy fingers seemed to close 'round me Imagining an ancient, unslaked thirst
Surprises become part of the routine Shocks shrug and slide into the perennial Grass soft with life under a dewy sheen Turns silver, brittle--extraterrestrial
A terrible hand Its fingerprints are decay Time is a monster
How they hate questions Those who wish to be worshipped And meekly obeyed
How readily your kind condemns my own: “Monsters, demons, foul children of the dark!” How quick you are to your siblings disown
Keep your crass upsell Your greed is so obvious It's pornographic
Glowing rectangle Show me everything I want Hide what I do not
Why are we surprised? Capitalism perverts Most relationships
So much talk of war On foes real and imagined While hearts yearn for peace
If you have a question, why don't you ask? Why must you introduce it with this cry? Posing a question is a simple task Complicating it thus, my nerves will fry!
