A-Z Poetry

I took a poetry challenge today - How did I do?

I read a friend's blog and he challenged us to A-Z poetry.. Read it and see that I did the A-Z....

Oh CRAP, now I sound like Dr. Suess again - I am definitely wanting to study Zen...

: P And now, without furthur adieu my poem... *Ahem*  Quiet in the back, this is IMPORTANT!
 

A - Z Poetry

 

 

Amid the vastness of this world

Beguiling, attracting nothing

Contemptuousness of humanity

Driving toward the horizon

Enthusiastically facing each day

Freeing my blackened heart from it's cage

Gaining confidence and solace

Honoring no one but myself

I incite insightfulness

Judge, jury, and executioner of truth

Kindred spirits detached

Longing for kindness

Meriting nothing from the enthusiasm

Now understanding your stance

Ostracized by strangers

Perusing the crowd

Quitting before I started

Reasoning with my ego

Stopping the insanity of the abuse

Torturing my soul for what?

Understanding it was not my cross to bear

Varying degrees of caring and compassion

Wondering where this will lead

Xenophobia runs rampant in this land

Yearning for an end to it

Zen Buddhism paves the way to enlightenment?
