Serene Pandemonium

Vagabonds and ragamuffins
Scream in delight;
Cry in unison in arson,
Yelling tonight.

Vagaries in their retribute,
Kindred denied.
Joyous, savage, time they ravage,
In packs tonight.

Pandemonium, their way to
Sanctuary.
Sagacity - our serene way
Toward misery.

Seems I am not the only who does not understand this poem :S

I agree with Dinesh, in that you should explain the story in the note.
I'm sorry man, but I am stumped - lol

I have to admit, this was one of your thought provoking ones, a powerful piece built beautifully.

The two sides of the coin that really seperates the planet. Why we can't find some kind of middle ground without the violence and hatred I will never know. waiting for the time that we ALL transcend and work for common goals, goals that make sense. Nice rhyme on this, dead on and well thought out. Loved this both as a pice of writing and an eloquently relayed thought.

Maybe you should explain the poem in your note. I'm not getting it.. But the choice of words is awesome.

On a personal level, I've always liked the words 'vagabond' and 'ragamuffin'...But onto the review!

I almost can't quite figure this poem out! "Sagacity - our serene way/ Toward misery" sounds like you're describing the chaos that accompanies wisdom. Or the lonely seclusion of thinkers. Hmm. But as whole, I receive the impression of the wayfayer who has shunned society and accompanies only their thoughts to whatever joy that brings them, despite the turmoil that tags along. I suppose I could pull several more meanings, as there is that hint of ambiguity and with that comes subjectivity, but I'm content with the words alone.

An impacting write; it definitely made me think. Great job!
