Chill

Chill

a reconciliation of madness

tempers triumph

as nonsensical distraction

baits the hook

and the disoriented fish

swim towards shore

grounding themselves

in sovereign woe.

Boom. Great work bringing this home.

Erin,
I think you are referring to the current politico-media tactic of pointing east whild heading west... Very nicely done, sir...

I like to be chill but I think it's a different connotation of the word. I like chill like calm, cool and collected. But most of all I like people who remain calm in an emergency. Those are my kind of people. Madness is something I try to avoid like rabid frothing animals.

I think madness is like being reborn as someone else. There is no return and the other person is dead. i really love how you always choose yourd words deeply sir!

[Sami Khalil]

It sure has a chilling effect when it happens; madness can be a condition or a tool.
We need triumph of peace, justice and reconciliation.
You write marvelously.

You are welcome sir Jacob.

[Poetic Beauty]

When madness once again strikes it chord with a vengeance; the mind become in disarray.

There is frustration and woe as you say at the very end of this poem.
