Nonsensical Nonsense

Nonsensical Nonsense

A Poem by LapseOfMind
"

Yeah, I don't know. I wrote it in about 7 minutes. It doesn't mean anything.

"
There is no weight to this world
An Atlas charlatan I demand
Too much time to play favorites
Not enough time to command
Spoken over the lonely
An evangelical tool
These words are just nonsense
Uttered by merely a fool
An alphabets uprising
Continually committing this chore
Wasted space on blank paper
Yet always coming back for more
How long can this linger
Shouldn't it come to an end
There's no reason to tamper
With an empty mind and a pen

Originally I took issue with the seeming lack of a coherent structure, but upon reading this through several times, it reveals itself to actually be quite an intelligent use of words: a hopeless writer struggling to overcome writer's block.

I am truly impressed. You've achieved one of the hallmarks of masterful poetry: obfuscating meaning in plain view. Good job!
