Trivial Pursuit Über Alles

Trivial Pursuit Über Alles

A Poem by Karina Longo
"

Lyrics

"
Kill the perspective of a shiny shadow
clouds shine the beauty no one longs to see
Oh, little explosives of fame and smoke,
a champagne bottle always hurts the litter.

Hunger’s there, as silent as morgues
Glittery corpses found in a bathtub

Chains to my fingertips, words are always so trivial
Chain to my fingertips, empty oceans and dead fishes
Broken hands can never write a name
Broken minds always think the same

We always dine as guilty men
In your hands winter dies,
slowly I survive writing down all my nightmares
Colours are not enough to draw these feelings.

Chains to my fingertips, words are always so trivial,
chain to my fingertips, keeping me sterile.
Broken hands can never write a name.
Broken minds will always think the same,
the same old same, the same

Amazing words. It remind me of a Leonard Cohen song. Must read each words to grasp his meaning and words.
"We always dine as guilty men
In your hands winter dies,
slowly I survive writing down all my nightmares
Colours are not enough to draw these feelings. "
Thank you for your always powerful poetry.

This is going to make an emotional song that will be memorable for sure.
Its a bit dark, but hope shimmers through. You did an excellent job of
writing a piece that is relevant to many people for many different reasons.
