Last Sunset
Rule of law
The golden mean
All of living
In truth
Obscene
Selections not elections
The streets paved
Over native maize
Oil spilled - prime time
A medicated haze
And if you were a clone
You wouldn't know it
For to know from -
That is;
Not to remove
Ones self
From the world
But from the ignorance
Civilization; that grand scheme
Has failed
The old fabric stable
Patch worked
The measure of all things
Back to start
One more again; another that is
For it is so given, then reserved
Then parody and license
The human habit - base nature
Until an end and then
Back to start
In my dream
And upon the rocks;
The shore
I stand
And knowing
The world of man
Had survived
Only then
To start again
For sure
And assuring
As always been
But ever in the again
Fraught with the fears
Am I and dreaming
As the sun sets

Post a CommentVery well written!
Deeply reflective and great the second time, too. :) Hope you post more poetry soon.
I thought I had already commented on this. I really like how each person can see this differently. I see exasperation with humans, how it seems we never learn. Although the mistakes made vary over time, they are still the same mistakes based on selfishness and greed. However, there is a touch of hope here and there, as many of us continue to have. Awesome poem.
Terrific!!
Excellent.
Sorry I've been away so long. This is an incredible piece. I love how you end it.
You write with both intelligence and elegance. Wonderful!!
You know, it's interesting, the concept that to remove oneself from ignorance would be so difficult. I like the idea of "starting again," and of native maize under paved streets, because that's how difficult it is to remove one's self from ignorance. Lovely piece.
Deep, passionate, articulate and very cool. : )
Thought-provoking
