Array ( [sid] => 164390 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => censored [time] => 2011-01-22 08:08:03 [hometext] => [bodytext] => Those who live life by the measure
rules and order they do treasure.
Power sought for they protect
your hearts and souls from the effects
of words that may cause you to fear
the loss of all that you hold dear.

they scan the words out on the sheet
for blasphemies and sexual heat,
or words that dockers shame to say
expressing that you go away
in jerking movements. Pray, don't tell?
your favourite act to do in hell.

Fit in boxes if you can
or what you write it will be panned.
Conscious borders must be set
before considering your subject.
For some can't cope with all the rind
that bonds expressions of the mind.

The shoes I wear I wore them in,
and all I say cannot begin
to lance the boil that grows inside
if all my bile I'm forced to hide,
for fear of hurting pride that looks
in regulation guides, and books.

Consider this my learned friend
that no beginning, middle, end
could rival nature's onward churn.
No rulebook used from which to learn.
if we ignore chaos, observe orders
truth is tainted within borders.

well spoken and full of wisdom
I truely believe and agree that what's written here
is so painlfully accurate, freedom of speech is not so
I fear this goes to show how impressionable
and pathetic we are as a species
insightful and brave, one to ponder

wow, that was genius. I think this is my favorite piece of yours so far.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
