Poem Artwork

I thought the world was more ideal

And the desire came from lies,

But when Epiphany appears,
 
It takes away the scales from eyes.
 
We cannot reach to the illusions,
 
We cannot touch them or pick out,
 
And neither can we turn back time
 
Nor stay at present here and now.
 
Our constant chasing after shadows,
 
And steady tries to catch a dream
 
Those simply make us be a target…

Thank you Claire for thoughts provoking poem,
that time and again makes a point of highlighting
...desire came from lies...
Our World is shrinking into a human's playground,
that is not safe anymore...reflects the murky
mood of living in this Century.
With warm regards Isabella.

A rather fatalistic view that many have. However, in nature's world, everything is a target for something else.

You Look FatCalgary by RickthePoetWarrior

Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
