Deliberate Discourse

Deliberate Discourse

A Poem by Wynter Ignatius

Quiet mouse
Masked rat
Repeated prick
Prattle on

Cawing crow
Shiny treasure
Taking all
Prattle on

Timid fish
Beached alone
Not suicidal
Prattle on

Coiled serpent
Raging peace
Hypocrisy thick
Prattle on

Guarded crab
Exposing weakness
Inviting attack
Prattle on

Majestic eagle
Soaring lowly
Oblivious senses
Prattle on

Circling shark
Terrorizing peers
Elder's victim
Prattle on

Cunning fox
Silvered spattle
Biting tail
Prattle on

Questioning owl
Regurgitated lies
Wrong answers
Prattle on

Helpless turtle
Tucked tight
Home alone
Prattle on

Howling wolf
Absent moon
Alpha's omega
Prattle on

Scarred pride
Heroic cur
Parts unkown
Prattle on

Blank shadow
Thunderously creeping
Unheard despite
Prattle on

Empty mind
Cluttered completely
Thoughts derailed
Prattle on

Rogue thoughts
Chaotic design
Organized focus
Prattle on

Wounded soul
Lashing out
Reflecting wounds
Prattle on

Beating heart
Yearning blindly
Strangle hold
Prattle on

Very interesting form :) it all comes together in a series of interesting metaphors to conjure quite vividly how you feel about these people ---or is it one person you know well?

i particularly like the last bit:

Wounded soul
Lashing out
Reflecting wounds
Prattle on

Beating heart
Yearning blindly
Strangle hold
Prattle on

which seems to capture emotions we all feel but are hard to describe in a word or two.

Wow! This is incredible!! I quite like your refrain, and I love how you transfer from animals to human characteristics. Excellent job!
