METROPOLIS

21st century
centurion centaur
hollow head collapse

rhapsody of a parody
match made in a mesh

flesh folds and unfolds

souls devoured by in-tell-x
sects like granules
with trash bag agendas

no reason
just because

cause versus effect

neutral

the constant cousin of unstable

where's the last sage of the space age

PHASE ONE
Taze a grandma

PHASE TWO
kill an infant
in an instant
the incense burn
for innocence to return

turn the page from tradition to trends
friends are multiple sex partners
with no commitment

first I ever heard
observe
one world to the third

Power structure
pucker your lips
just BLIPS on the radar

tobacco and diamonds
oil and weapons

to harvest the earth's core

more
MOre
MORE

the maniacal cycle
known as man
so eager to possess his own destruction.

So eager to possess his own distruction, that is just perfect. I love the way you use your words to create anticipation to support your ending. This poem is great. Would love to hear it out loud.

Your style is a little difficult for me to grasp but I find it grows on you as you read. I love the final stanza.
