Mx.Understood (The Villain)A Poem by Indra's Child
Now is time to
Pare down Remember your excellence For tomorrow brings adventure But today requires steadfastness In the face of a word parade Launching syllables Stuck in the thick air As ammunition stopped with admonition Choose to lose yourself In the veritable vastness Of an idea unconquered In the vichyssoise Of a million blended flavors Of hatred and fear Or ignore the ignorance And freeze out the pain From your warm heart Kill the heat Rise to the top With hopes of becoming the cream Follow the moon and the stars To the ends of the earthly domain Or follow the path of dirt Eat the clay caked on your trembling hands Lay alone at night And meditate in solitude.... © 2022 Indra's Child |
