Inconsequentiality! You shade
My mental stability! You argue
About nothings, search for something, and fade.
Strickening any gain ascertained true …
Sensibility, trembling aqueduct’s
Suppressor, you hold my mind captive
With structured remedies. Hold my mind shut
As you prance with gladdened superlatives…
Responsibility! You stave your weight
Into my mind! You carry off thoughts with
Impunity’s delight, cycling my fate.
Stricturing my needs with dubious width…
Creativity? I’m losing my mind!
To inconsequentiality’s kind…

As in one of your past constructs, I also find another sequence of events happening, either consciously, or sub-consciously.
An awareness of something of little or no importance leading you into the ability to respond aesthetically to these strong feelings about this awareness, leading you then to the realization of your accountability for what you say or do in conjunction to this revelation or disturbance, leading you finally to the imaginative ability to make a descision for yourself that will either enhance, or defeat your own existence.
Richard the Intrepid
“INCONSEQUENTIALITY”... This poem talks about someone who is fighting to make a life’s decision; someone that knows the direction of light, but has to remain between darkness and half light; someone who has a lot of responsibility, and can’t define the priority of his/her life; and thinks that creativity isn’t enough to prevent him/her from losing his/her mind.
This writing sounds from someone that has completed a cycle of spiritual/existencial research; and felt lost in that particular moment and just let the state of mind flow.

The word oppression, become a gross understatement once one finds this less than ideal mentality roaming the hallways where the ground works for our social futures are laid.
