Under Abridged
by Brian K Pellerino

Rated "PG13" by the Author.

In the weariness of misadventure,
I'm given to pause.
I find it liberating to shackle myself to an idea much like starting something else can bring closure.

I find the alacrity of my membership charming.

For a few moments at least.

Then, as with things and me, I'm fragmented.
Scattered across a myriad of charges and pursuits.

Fruition be damned, it's the journey right?

I know I beat an unfamiliar path through these woods.
I don't recognize the foliage.

Yet, I find the exercise familiar.

I hear your words and I grind them into meaning and apply them to their places in the puzzle and I still don't see the picture.

I'm starting to feel like I don't get the joke.

Maybe I am the joke.

A symbolistical ontologic and teleological inner discussion through the lines of
"Under Abridged" stimulates philosophical thoughts and
delivers a striking soulsīmessage.

I have learned a meaningful lesson through this mindīs feeding
reading, "Under Abridged".

A well executed write and you know I have to say I wonder about the joke question raised here. These thoughts have certainly crossed my mind.
Reviewed by Danielle Mundy 2/27/2005
excellent write, Brian, but I'd like to tell you that starting a journey with a clear view of the "picture" wouldn't really be worth the adventure. Going down the path less traveled often produces a more worth-while outcome than just going with the flow. :) chin-up, all things turn out as they're meant to despite what we might do along the road.
