In a state of disrepair...

0 posted 2006-05-05 09:56 AM



The end is at the beginning
but the beginning has gone.
The middle isn't here
and the time wears on,
seems my clock was wrong.

The elegance of life is sightless distress.
To know we are nothing and still fight for less.
Stammering puppets that dance on request.
Thought compressed and still overdressed.

An uneven dichotomy of ambition and dust.
The residue of lamentation decried by old lust
The remnants of hope caked in new rust

Why is each answer the same as the last?
Where do these wonders gather in packs?
Who was the girl that you walked pass?
When the moment when you had the facts?
How is the meaning trapped in the glass?

Every echo of nothing the same
and nothing else remains.....
.....remains.....
..................remains...........................
...............................remains......................
.............................................the same..............

"And the sun went down, and the stars came out far over the summer sea,
But never a moment ceased the fight of the one and the fifty-three."
