O, these fine, fashionable, fondlers Of pondering wisdom’s, In the idioms of earthen Consents, Gray case encrusted, Attitudinal cements. Parapet and barrier, Laments of rancid carrion. Self bestowed upon slinking shoulders. Into the Frey of Man speak, Into the realm of blood and bone, Ejected into the otherings That man alone bestows. Upon his brothers ****** brow, Upon his trodden heart, They seek definition In epitome In enfilades of bias and violence. They languish under opinionated stars, Under sun’s of blood red risings. O that the voice of this could only die a death Befitting some horrid criminal, And peace come in its stead. A vision of a dreamer A poet writing wishes Clichés of lost hopes In search of soulful riches.

In Search of Soulful Riches
O, these fine, fashionable, fondlers Of pondering wisdom’s, In the idioms of earthen Consents, Gray case encrusted, Attitudinal cements. Parapet and barrier, Laments of rancid carrion. Self bestowed upon slinking shoulders. Into the Frey of Man speak, Into the realm of blood and bone, Ejected into the otherings That man alone bestows. Upon his brothers ****** brow, Upon his trodden heart, They seek definition In epitome In enfilades of bias and violence. They languish under opinionated stars, Under sun’s of blood red risings. O that the voice of this could only die a death Befitting some horrid criminal, And peace come in its stead. A vision of a dreamer A poet writing wishes Clichés of lost hopes In search of soulful riches.
