[hometext] => Have you ever met people who just seem to refuse to enjoy life full stop ?, the ones that moan about anything and everything and can never see the good in things ?.We only have one life, shouldn't we at least try to live it ?
[bodytext] => I swear they would queue for death, too scared to miss out Imagining the afterlife is ticket only, no refunds You would think spontaneity the daughter of the devil Euphoria a mythical place where none have ever been Kindred spirits amass, shepherded in the state of zombie A multitude of faceless puppets, waiting for the puppeteer Life a series of uninspired chapters, revitalised by coffee cup That sugar sweetened anaesthetic,that soothes and quells impulsion What quickens the pulse in their monotonous existence? What stimulates the mind and remedies the soul ? If our eyes are vehicles to draw imagination Theirs must be in traffic on a long and one way road Living in trance, hardly ever entranced, jubilation mere extravagance Drugged to existence with overwhelming intolerance Too late to close the stable door, ambition long since bolted Galloped off into the twilight never to return Maybe abstinence makes the heart grow fonder, where nonchalence has seed Where excitement is a frightened man, bludgeoned to submit When finally their bell has tolled and heaven calls them in Will God be disappointment, nothing like the one in films ? Will they conspire to permeate the afterlife with gloom? Or criticise the Pearly Gates on Health and Safety stance ? I fear for all the angels if their halo's do not shine They'll be replace by perfect clones on pure aesthetic grounds!!

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. ©
