Dissolution a.k.a. (Not Everyone Decks the Halls) I'm ennuyé...haggard. The witching hour has been and gone and sunup is upon me. Look, in the East, the daystar doth rise and I bleary eyed weep for the loss of twilight. Be vexed my heart. Let sarcasm and grossness wed me to bitterness. Thrust deep the blade of woe into my belly, torque and cleave my life's blood onto the floor. It matters naught for I am even now dead. An automaton going through the motions. There's, no life within mine eyes, no hope in each rasped breath, and I do not care. Why must we yoke disquiet to heartache? Where is it written that tomorrow will bring a better day? Bullroar I say. Absurdity is all there is, and for but a winks cessation we slight this certainty for a toss of the dice. Seven out! The house wins...but not I. Remember, if you're not part of the future, you're history! |

Hi Kevin, this is a very strong and emotional write. It's very well written. By the way, I've never heard the term "bullroar" before either? )) Hugs, Ethel |

bullroar and I don't deck the halls either, but continue to reshuffle the deck when the hand isn't to my liking and I'm not much of a card player |

Hi everyone. Thank-you for commenting on the poem. I really appreciate it. Bullroar is not a new word though dear friends. It means rubbish, balderdash, nonsense, trash, bull, crap, load of rubbish, or horse hockey. I pulled it out of the dictionary when I wrote the piece. (Wink!) |
