PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

As your heroes and villains

over years fade

the time to shine is apparent

when all colors begin to lean gray

But earlier

I was ready to swing

while life's carousel persisted at a mad clip

The infinite curiosities and atrocities of living 

flew off and enveloped the ship

like an erotic, exotic, toxic fog pumped in

feverishly without abandon

You're youth incarnate.

A kinetic fervor awaits!

raw emotions of your character surface mightily

and plastic head gear melts

from the inferno surfacing

asserting an organic avenue as lava

destroying all the flimsiest obstructions that

only a venue like Wal-Mart or Family Dollar

can offer in bulk for cheap

The key is tempered control

for young masses consumed

by the aromatic code

of destructive agents within

that fuel lust, yet erode

a diamond's value in a trusted soul

Difficult as it may seem

hog-tied to a society of instant gratification

..

you still sat with courtesy on-line

at the deli stand until your number was called

keenly aware of

how love processed over time

delivers the righteous goods 

through shared wisdom's hand and mind

Wisdom

groomed in time and reality

is a stubborn car of nuanced inoculation that runs true

Repetitive electrical synapses jolt the neurons

from the stationary to the involuntarily-active

and we react on-time

because knowledge can offer why

and youth can tell us yes

but wisdom bellows to me when,

and where,

how,

and with whom
