Venom

  
--and the tyranny of such thoughts
was manifested into the intricate
designs of disassociation.

you have a way to go,
he said to the people.

but, on premises of lacking inheritance,
you've lost the way.
no courtyards for a ballroom blitz--
we're going to sit this one out.

& they sighed relief
(though death was imminent)
then bowed their heads.

we are the chosen implications
of a faltering legacy,
notoriety has expired and consumption

is our god.

I am really enjoying your poetry, as in the words hides many things to think about.  This being another example - well done indeed.

Damn...this is beyond excellent....powerful & poignant....I've read it several times already and am still blown away.  You're very talented, I wish I could write more like you.

Intellectually I know that Canada is no better than any other country. Emotionally I KNOW that Canada is the best country in the world!

I'm sorry for the delay in thanking everyone for their generous commentary...Work, Work, Work.  Seriously though, it's much appreciated.  Take care.
