it is not so much that a poem may be plagiarised

( ah so sweetly brainwashed

The youth of a whole nation ! )

LET US KNOW COMPASSION

:/:

But that  the life of the poet is such that one might say

THE LIFE STYLE BEING DEPICTED IS A COPY - CAT

DEPICTION OF NORMALCY

( hence

" I can relate to that ! "

Becomes a cloned ..... term of praise )



I TOO !
I TOO !

//

Yes

The standards of poetry are being debased

But
( more importantly )

The responses one makes to the events and experiences
Of
Ones life

Are being compartmentalized and limited

To the narrowly defined objectifications we  place upon each other

||

" I am broken "

Is a SAFE response to an experience


Hiding

" why am I allowing the cloned norms of

A ******* culture to define me '

In obscurity



It's like politics


Where the ISSUES  ....... are given to us

And we are compressed into

Childish VOTERS!


Similar to how we objectify each other as

LOVER

EX- LOVER

( WHO WE " HATE " BUT STILL " DEMAND "

COME BACK AGAIN !"

//

And it is only a freakishly  deformed

DEMOCRACY

that we see being pushed in a

Wheel chair down the street



Likewise

It is merely

WORDS stuffed into baby carriage

That we call POETRY



Politically Correct Poetry !

Sterile poetry for sterile lives

::

Heart breaking sterility

::

Murderously Mundane poetry

//

Hatefulness disguised as love !

""

Anyone can be free

;;

The true anger at being manipulated

Becomes

IM DEPRESSED

//

The vision of an alienated society

Becomes

I NEED TO GET LAID   !
NOW !

//

The real questions we should be asking

Become

Stylized and cloned responses

That create a prison of words

That free poetry can help liberate us from

Or help us stay

Safely enslaved within    

)(

Poetry itself  is an act of ******
Liberation

//

IT BLEW MY MIND !

a response to a true poem

/:/

A poem about ones *** life

Is usually

Boring and contrived

Safely sterile

And numbingly

Repetitive
