Poetry: Fresh Torrent
Cookie cutter words so
carefully cut and pasted
on me are simply wasted.
Their relevance defunct
so silent deaf and mute
someone else’s route.
This romances brevity
couldn’t even warrant
a freshly cut torrent.
Thoughts on you only
today are freshly writ
not from another’s skit.
Your cycle oft repeated
new color same game
please shame and blame.
Faded far from view
a barren desolate land
this love’s final stand.
Pain is public domain
burn your copyright
cliché it into firelight.
Blank page tattered torn
crumpled piss-stained
empty promises drained.
Program pre-recorded
tired hackneyed phrases
sung too long the praises.
“the lady doth protest
too much” said Hamlet
then she knew her fear
just ask Shakespeare.
Excellent write
Thank you so much. It’s that pain thing again lol
A good poem Rob, deep and emotive. Hope you’re okay.
Yes thank you for asking and thank you for your praise
Good to hear you’re well. My pleasure Rob.
Great poem – angry, yet deep and controlled. Awesome tone. Sorry you had to feel this way though. 🙁
Thank you for taking the time to comment, I am always honored when someone actually types something. I left some thoughts for you on yours.
Yeah I did that today too lol
on what, did I miss it? Let me go feed myself lol
In the poem I just wrote don’t feel sorry for me – it’s pretty aggressive
read it. Good for you.
Thanks buddy
thanks buddy? too cute
I love the beginning so much …cookie cutter words are wasted- freaking love that
So cool you liked it. Instead of writing sad sappy love songs, I thought I’d get a little pissed off for once lol.
