Corruption

Corruption

A Poem by Chris W.
"

This one reads a little differently than my other ones, in a good way though i think

"
Alas, another adaptation
Beauty betrothed behind bars
Carefully constructed confusions
Denounced deconstructed delusions

Arbitrary arrows aligned
Bidding balanced beliefs
Countless cycles converged
Destroying devout deceit

And among aimless absolutes
Beauty bore bewilderment
Cautiously concealed
Despite defective dishonesty

And amidst abject asylum
Beauty bled bereavement
Communally consumed
Despite detestable delivery

Alas, another admiration
Beauty baffled behind bars
Clearly contrived compulsions
Delivered desired devotions
