[hometext] => Some of my musings on the world today and how to avoid continuing our downward spiral...
[bodytext] => The mind outside reality seeks It screams aloud inside it's silence And plays the songs it longs to hear The mind within it fades and blends What shows the scars reveals the truth And what's become of this This life inside Dialogue for the sanity of self preservation Collected thoughts in cauldrons Rain down with the nights skies The amber waves of heroic lies And thusly do we seek revenge A distant memory of trials of pain The rising tides begin their purging A fire inside us yearns for this As we fuel what burns with pains of youth Upon their backs we build our kingdom Demigods we are and we rule with iron fist Deception to brave the tortured world Seeking peace and to simply hide The rights of man and beast Do we separate ourselves so eloquently? Are we not but beast elevated? Then primal urges feed our thoughts Tamed through hands around our throat And trained to buy into all the lies Deceit a path the powerful pave They pave it with our blood and minds given over The wealth of few buys many souls And shapes a future none would want The lessons here are to revert To rise within and wake the beast The feral nature of ourselves Defeats the strongest minds prison Shelter this the aging brow The infants cry is to be preserved And as we walk this path alone To leave behind our mark to show Those who come after Once we've gone Shall see that we made good the stones The dirt and grass beneath our feet The treasured air in breath defeats The anchor of oppressors crowns No, nothing left will weigh us down Break free your mind and extend your reach ...For what is learned is ours to keep [comments] => 0 [counter] => 54 [topic] => 21 [informant] => Nathanielrene [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

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. ©
