Poem Commentary

I'm not entirely sure what moved me to
pen this, but then i'm never really sure
of anything.

Head Blossom

Head Blossom

The surging and wink of
the bright lights out here
on the edge of silence
and town are almost too loud.

Forboding and strange are
the footsteps of those seeking
determined to find solace in reality
and actually seeing something....

The constant request for quiet
crosses the demand for an answer
and neither are found.
There is nothing to achieve.

My own thoughts twist upon
the brilliance of the lurid day
and whisps of unmentionable escape
become lonely, and die.

Practically useful for nothing,
not even a good ending.

i think your poem was truth poetry does not have to rhyme or even make sense to those who have no depth it is the poems that touch you in a true way that are the best

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
