Chaos

Chaos abhors duplicity.

Chaos rings your phone when you are in your phony

conversation, hoping to avoid talking to that

chatty pest who has cornered you in the store.

Chaos brings the neighbor to that cozy, out of
the way restaurant three towns over when you
are there with your clandestine lover.

Chaos brings that random car down that desolate
country lane at the exact moment that you are
disposing of the body at two in the morning.

Chaos abhors duplicity.

Whoa, no Chaos for me please. Which came first the chicken or the egg, or rather dishonesty or Chaos. I think your implying that Chaos is the equalizer and especially for the dishonest. I like the way you wrote this dealing with the subject of karma.

Ha HA - very good. I like your reasoning :)

I really enjoyed the lines "Chaos brings that random car/down the desolate country road/ at that exact moment that you are/ disposing of the body at two a.m." that was awesome! Great meaning to the whole poem, with varied but readable vocabulary, which is important. Brilliant poem! :)

When people feel that urge to say, "It's not fair!" your poem is going to say, "Shut it. It's a crazy world." But really, there's not much more embarrassing than being caught with a dead body. This is clever and funny, but also well-written, I think. Opening and closing statement the same, and 3 is the magic number when it comes to support clauses. Short and sweet, nice job.

By the way, your poetry (since I have so far been skimming) I think gives you the merit of being a good writer. I think I will definitely be interested to read more of your work.

I've always been told that there is a certain elegance in simplicity, so that's usually my goal. I very much appreciate your visit and your considered remarks. Thank You Ma'am

Ha ha! Nice. This is great. I like how your picture hints at an order within the chaos. I see the hands of justice we all love so much beaming through here. This is very satisfying.

I'd say its very typical of chaos to be so frusterating.... But perhaps I tried just a hint more honesty??
This is a cute,.and really funny poem, I can't wait to read more of your work.

I believe chaos hates us for a little part, though for some a greater part.
