Weeping rugs and collecting dust

Weeping rugs and collecting dust

A Poem by Travis Lawrence

If we are one then we are change,

white ink

ultimately satisfied.

 

Mirrors reflect self

rejects all forms,

 

like whole parts

sick to digest less

than entirety.

 

Artificial unplugs pipelines once

broken won’t fix sterility

and suffocate

 

preventive means

to spawn new curing.

 

Greedy pills swallow

cash less indebts health

to credit payment suicide.

 

Sweep owed caps

under old weeping rugs and collecting dust.

Makes me think so much of spoken word, and I can see someone on open mic night reading this. I love it. Raw, and edgy. Gritty, even. Nice beat if read in ways.
"If we are one then we are change,
white ink
ultimately satisfied.
Mirrors reflect self
rejects all forms,"

This part hooked me...........

I really like this.
It had a certain edge to it that I admire.
My favorite part is:
"Greedy pills swallow
cash less indebts health
to credit payment suicide."
This is such an excellent write.
I'm giving you a round of applause.
Great work!
