There's a destiny chosen by the stars dead inevitable, I must overcome. Life's predictable when I'm lazy; Humor the day, fade to gray, then I'm numb Oh, what is the consequence of defying you Destiny? When I get there I'll take it in strides. As of now.... I have yet to come through with my hopeful, strectched lies born from intentions to quench my soul Destiny's directing me I can't escape -I'm weak- this lonely gray vicinity. Prosaic sector; Devoid of musical entity. Like an unwaning cancer; The source of my soul's atrophy. And so alas, it is my "fate", being chained below I'm struggling to rise... Middle ground is as far as I can go. Though not as far as I can see. You'd think I'd strive as long as I have sight. But all light has vanished from tall cavern's eye. And I have not the strength or will required to climb. ....Okay, so this poem is obviously not about a delicious bagel.... I admit, I led you here under false pretenses. If you wish to provide me with a vengeful beating, I will permit it..... |

Very, very interesting. Playful false pretenses prove fantasy exists. HUH? How did you know I bought bagels today? I enjoyed this most unusual poem, especially this: "And so alas, it is my "fate", being chained below I'm struggling to rise... Middle ground is as far as I can go" |

Interesting poem..but why the lure with the false title? Do you think a catchy title is essential to draw a reader's eye? If you had to rename this piece, what would you call it? |

To Poet deVine: I simply didn't feel like being serious, I was going to call it "fade to gray" or something like that... Its just that I don't consider titles to be of that much importance, and because the poems that I write never at all stray from "serious", I like to put something silly or stupid for the title..... Thankyou SEA, Thanks Midnitesun And Noah Eaton, I had no idea I was so loved, thanks for filling me in.... Ah, but you say that to everyone don't you? |
