Repost: Futility Cornucopias horn is full Yet born is much hunger. There are more then three bags full Who hordes it, which monger? They author and write their pages Time eats and burps away Through the banquet of the ages Bilious with gay and bray. And apocalypse toasts the few Pledging lust and power Always mesmerizing the new With greed of the hour. Is this the seed the inner core Futilities inane. The exit of the gardens door Humanity's insane. But who am I to rap times rend I know no better end. |

Cornucopias horn is full Yet born is much hunger. There are more then three bags full Who hordes it, which monger? ================================== Well that will be the coolest verse I'll read today!!! Reading your poetry is like eating Cracker Jacks .... One works their way, munching on all the sweet popcorn puffs of rhyme divine...coated with melodics that dance on the tongue... along the way,if we keep our mind's eyes open, we find peanuts of wisdom and truth sprinked thru the internal rhymes, and as we gleefully munch our way to the bottom, there will be found the prize of wise in those closing couplets of WAAY COOL. Why have boring ceral in the morn when one can satisfy their poetic sweet tooth with Stinky and Randy?  (rofl ... so far to go for so little,--huh Stinky?) LOL I need me tea mothy me |

I really enjoyed your poem and its meaning but comparing you to "Cracker Jack" now that is stretching it some, what is in her tea anyway, I want some Hmmm, I shall ask and make us all some when we are there together in a few weeks LOL. I really did like this poem in all this verbal confusion.The pursuit of truth and beauty is a sphere of activity in which we are permitted to remain children all our lives. |
