Delirium Forging Perpetuity

by Odin odin@aflx.com — Read all 3,869 poems by Odin odin@aflx.com

With rare exception, the ceaseless top stories, seemingly in a never ending redux cycle, such repetitive “history” continually reminds one that the joys of thinking, of making free choice of behavior, occupy little promise, as the “Breaking News” idiocy baits the ignorant and continues to gather unabated traction in destroying any semblance of choice. Might there ever be a solution to this “head-in-the-clouds” malaise? (Image by Mathiole)

Delirium Forging Perpetuity


Our minds, our guardians
for the weakness of the flesh,
the challenge of one’s growth
protection of innocent’s passion.

Our minds, our guardians
growing old,
struggling with past and future,
innately seeking truth.

Our minds, our guardians
biding time which asks nothing of us,

but seeks needs over wants.

Our minds, our guardians,
nature's scholarly heart pumping quietly in us all
while withstanding the noise,
the clatter of the lost climbing ever higher
into delirium’s lostness.

If only love’s need, that simple principal of purpose that

What we read from tbe news are mostly nonsense or fake news that bait the ignorance. People make bad choice and behaving badly because they are misguided. Politicians work behind the scenes and leave us with our heads in tbe clouds. No one really knows what is going on. Some of my friends even say that the school shootings were fake, no one had really died. It is all a political game to fool tbe public, but we don't know why. The only reason I can think of is to give them the reason to genocide to reduce the population in some countries. There are no terrorists. It is all made up.

Yes, the world sure could use a lot of more love than the delirium of having our heads in the clouds. Nothing but mist there.
