PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

you cannot manufacture
originality
it comes
inexplicably from within
the ghost cavern myth
it has become
beauteous language
so miraculously pulled
from distant attics
in the mind
yet more is the case
we know from not where
unrealized rough drafts
for life, many times man does
walk through
tentative torments
bruised by only himself
as they are pushed
so brutally on through
sensitive origins
only ones' truth can survive
so we walk about
as if dock workers
to the teamsters union
of life
miserly fools who weakly
look back
in jaundiced retrospect
so deeply regretful over
wasting all those years
of
'Our Beautiful Youth'.................
