What is...

What is...

A Poem by Jane Lockheart

What is...

 

 

Love without hate?

If love never existed,

hate would be unlisted.

Two key emotions absent from our minds.

Without these feelings,

we are blind.

 

Down and no up?

No plane would ever be in flight.

No birds in sight.

"What goes up, must come down,"

would mean nothing.

Everything already, is on the ground.

 

Happy but no sad?

We arn't happy if we've never heard of sad.

Happy would also be a feeling we never had.

No longer a meaning to a smile,

because a frown is unknown.

An emotionless lifestyle.

 

 

What is...

F**k.
yeah.
Ms. Lockheart.

That flow is tight, the inner rhyme has zapped this b*****d like a f*****g frankenstein. Its no longer a list that makes people think about obscurity, but gets a baseball ball and unleashes some big brass balls
It carries that almost negative pushes the positive.
The message that was missing is now in the forefront without forcefeeding.
Well done on the edit

Up Up and away

Heaven or Hell. It's idealistic. Incomplete. Unbalanced. Extremes. Thing is if we didn't know sadness we wouldn't be able to appreciate happiness. Its like saying the moon exists without the sun. Perfect Chaos.
Let us be thankful for the fools, but for them the rest of us could not succeed.
Good Job on the whole:P

SOUL LESS.

The back and forth effect is fire indeed. the best with no buy is probably my quickest head turner. Instead of the back and forth quick stanza's why not throw in some longer inner rhyme lines in between pushing those visions? you got a noose around the neck of this b*****d..let it go and see what happens
