The Seat of ConsciusnessA Poem by John Putignanoa poemEverything had been systematic and clandestine During a pursuit of fragmented archetypes I began to feel stifled by a stale cognition Suddenly, from the base of my spine came an immense surge an unbridled current exploded forth Scorching my chakras prior to smashing into the apex Once inside Power was redistributed with focus set on the seat of consciousness Slumming it in the rafters were the bickering devils the dastardly bug eyed scatterbrains began to swoop in Nothing more than plague ridden jesters behaving like a gang of obtuse, manic tweakers Eagerly they siphoned prana in hopes of elevating toxicity levels With my third eye pried open it became clear that a quarantine would be futile Aghast, the uninspired scurried off to hide in the shadows they mumbled segmented vignettes and other nonsense These slack jawed rubber necks seemed fascinated by the sky In the fallout of such calamities there ́s no lessons to be learned Nothing else really, so I watch the stars as they ́re methodically extinguished© 2021 John Putignano |
