Poetic justice myths

dark blank pages, in my soul's view

written in reasoning's default

Greek tragedies off the ledge

calculating a mindless scream

whispered under dispensation's breath

climbing the allotted wall's ballot

of poetic justice's myths 

indulgences of the spirit kind proselytized 

dealing out awards for time shares

permission granted, courtesy of unrest

brass tacks on the deck of substance

matters not the actualization

real world spun on a dime

leaving no time for still life's induction

corruption in tradition's regulations

installation's selection institutionalized 

confinement in loss of gray density

nothing lasts forever, so says the rain...

You are definitely back Mrs.R...your poems are always the toughest for me to review because it's so hard to find the words to articulate how they make me feel...you know I hold your words close to my heart though, I always have...I couldn't help but smile at the Greek tragedy reference ;) The last line is a knockout. What more can I say, you never fail to enforce the reasons as to why you're my favourite poet :) xo

Oh Benji, you're definitely getting a squishy hug and sloppy kiss for this one! Mwah! :) xo

[kublakhan27]

Haha I'll be waiting patiently Mrs.R, mwah ;) xo

ironic how myths never die and neither does the rain... passed on my word of mouth like the water cycle.. it may change form but not what it is composed of. But everything in between the essence of water and the telling of stories can not be changed or undone.
A great poem!

A soulful, mournful piece that depicts sadness and loss in your usual magnificent choice of metaphors. The last line gives a profundity to the poem that leaves one thoughful and quiet of heart my Lady.

[Al R. Arce]
