Questioning My Good Sense

Questioning My Good Sense

A Poem by Neva Flores Smith - Changefulstorm

Who reset the line of answers..............

"






















Who reset the line of answers
So they could change lanes
And pass right by
Questioning my good sense?

Was this done to enter into
All that matters the most to me
To watch me climb those hills
Of my anxiety?

I know that if I will only sit still
I could easily assume
Everything will be just fine
All evidence removed.

Do you hear what I am saying
Is it not all in plain view?
How exceptions approach
Introduce themselves to you.

Outside of my existence, I know
Something looks at me
Forces my feet off balance
When it's time to leave

Should I relax within the bruises
Of various possibilities?
Carry them into the darkness
Until I lose sight of me.

When I glance to reconsider
All the excepting evidence
Who resets the answers
Questioning my good sense?

Featured Review

All I know is that when I alone drive the bus, it's sure to head off the nearest cliff. What made perfect sense to me yesterday no longer fits into today's world. As cummings wrote, "Always the beautiful answer which asks a more beautiful question". Changeful storm, indeed, this creature called life. Good poetry helps tame the storms with wise guidance. This is good poetry, Neva.

"should i relax within the bruises of various possibilities?" this is marvelous, my favorite out of your poem. you know, when you really do it well, one line can stretch across the universe of the mind, tying all the others together. great job!

ONE of the best poems I've ever read

This poem couldn't be more true. Everyone wants everything done as soon as possible, but sometimes, things can't be done in a day. Life today is fast-paced, and new struggles come to your eyes everyday. Well, usually, it takes more than one day to conquer those struggles and move on with your life.
