Array ( [sid] => 119983 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Coherent Crystal Glasses [time] => 2006-05-13 09:18:12 [hometext] => suppression...my very best work up to this point, commentes appriciated [bodytext] => Suppression:
An intricate piece of childhood
Determination:
Willingness and required perfection
Needing:
The absolute human weakness

Everything requires work
Life requires weakness
All the words above
Is what leads to Unhappiness
As does the rest of the world
Quite depressing, isn’t it?
And the rest of these words
Are they the same?

No, no what a misunderstanding
It’s not always the content of your glass
It’s more over how you’re handling
The half-full, half-empty, Bleak,
Melancholy and meek
Distorted views of the Same Colored Sky
Due to the simple fact: suffocation persists,
Yours and my eyes alike; They Lie

Cheers to Deception, we raise our glasses in despair
See the colored wine, all full to different extent
We nod our heads to a coherent, useless prayer
Although in this quiet room we do not know consent
No one dares to break their crystal glass
For it is their hidden replica of a fragile life
Do I hear a shatter, a crack?
One more worthy saved soul
But the price for a soul is a life, alas
As our unopened minds eye hovers over this
Without the Third you will never see

You can’t unveil the truth with out Suppressing it

This an intelligent poem I will enjoy deciphering.I think..and may be failing to break my crystal glass nonetheless..ha ha...
that the suggestion is that truth is revealed through the rising above attempting to deny it throughout our lives.And it is all in our perceptions as well.When we break the crystal glass,we see clearly.The glass is a metaphor for our illusions? I know there is much more to this but since this a comment only,I'll just say..Great job! And sorry if I am way off!
