Scale of Seven

Eventually this will never end.

Vibratory vessels
in my veins,
a vindication.

A lie I taught,
a lie I told,
a fabled fabrication

has fallen to
the firestorm of
my imagination.

That sheet before
the seven more
that sing of the salvation

fell in three,
and now I must
ascend this scale of seven

between this mortal
neverending
thirst for my addiction

and forever finding
fact from fiction;
truth in utter contradiction.

Author's Note

Do you get a funny feeling when you try to make yourself believe two contradictory statements are simultaneously true?

Reviews

[Lau Thiam Kok]

Again, I liked this writing - writing as thesis. I think you are a good writer and a good thinker. the words are so brief and brave.

I really like how you set this one up. The alliteration, and structured off-rhymes (complete with excellent and pronounced punctuation) helped to create a very steady flow. I love any theme that explores contrasting, dualistic ideas. "Truth in utter contradiction." Beautiful.
