Misanthropic

 

Misanthropic

 

Exploring my messed up misanthropic mind

Filled witch cluttered

Self fulfilling prophecies

The cat dragged in

Mittens looking for kittens

Astray from the once

Well kept path to a wishing well

Hidden under a long lost stone

Killed the butterflies in my stomach

Upset by the remembrance of

Stolen dreams

Will come true

As me myself and I rise

From the ashes

To be the Phoenix

I was destined to be

Something has gone wrong with the ratings box...it wld only let me register a score of 50% and will not let me fix this. groan. WC system strikes again?

Like the sound of the first line and the confusion of the mittens/kittens but the key thing is the optimism at the end of the poem.

Great sense of renewal at the end...esp like the sound of the first line and the image of the cluttered mind and the confusion of mittens/kittens. But in the end it is a very optimistic poem.
