Naked Eye of Deception


I rebuke you, with your uncanny smiles
and impish eyes.
Hands dripping with malevolence,
as your evil motives sink mortals:
oblivious and innocent (laughs)
in ingenuous faces,
with a radiance of magnificence
and a passion for anguish.
Soft cries,
howls of pain,
sultry deliverance of distress,
poor boy souls,
wandering eyes.
Love to no avail
sets a trail of freedom
beyond reach,
salvation, a contemplation
drowning in their minds,
a concept lost with the idea of peace
and freedom no longer rings;
only a dial tone of never ending destitution.

Deprivation out of character
as the script blows in the wind
and life becomes a reminiscence,
built around misconceptions and dreams
unreachable to humanity
as the race continues
with tired, worn, used shoes
fit for the king himself.

Amazing how royalty rises up in tired, worn, used shoes, I think of the shattered walls from ruins and how there are stories we don't have the ending of and yet those walls held grace unsinkable knowledge of witness of courage and reclamation that may have taken place in the heartbeats of the humans that passed through the chambers of its shelter before it buckled under the assaults of the whims of forces too strong to bear. So, let us receive witness that there is much unseen, yet recorded that one day we shall know the full of it. Thought provoking piece for I hear the sounds of frustration that there is not more seen in efforts of love that seems of no avail and yet it hints that struggle to cleave to some small ray of sunshine is lurking in the sidelines of the disgust at what is calling itself real. I am moved by its hauntingness.

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
