drama elegant and complicated

what mocks faith in humanity?
embodies the deepest mind?
challenges an equivalence inherently
what
winter knows far in advanceā€¦

the punch line, perhaps a burden
of weak and brutal men
unfailing honesty, supremely calls
to a dictatorship of maintenance

the impossible
choice
allows graciousness
to be more poignant
then one root of
a villain's despise
vulnerable people
fed grotesque cynicism
by some tall
lovely actress
who implies....
a humanistic right where
exposition
aspires like a prostitute
all dressed up
eavesdropping on
zeals of hunger
& poverty be their muse
spreading self gratification
like the strong jaw
of curious evolution

malignant free will
grows like dictatorships
flushed with
a healthy rosy color
bloodthirsty to the test

does humanity
prove cause for hope?
once we glimpse
inside the chaos?

hormones of daydreams
swirl poetically evoked
more courageous & optimistic
with romantic temperament
like the first robin of spring

delicate rhythm of offering
so much in return
a story
magically familiar
beautifully realized
by a few good men

"unfailing honesty, supremely calls
to a dictatorship of maintenance"

Oh!  This is rich and I often think the same way when viewing actors spouting off on some issue for when in fact they are only "spreading self gratification."

"hormones of daydreams"
Wow!  I love this "delicate rhythm of offering."

Excellent write!

always seeking joy, adventure and romance and wishing you find the same

Lee J,
You said it all in this verse.
I love the whole write, but this one verse shouts!

PS... stay away from closed doors.
LUV-YA..

blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
