I'd like to Marvel at what the street-lights see
The comical outlines of it's shadows,
Tripping & slipping into street-fights
Street-Nights are profound..
We are
Bound by a two dimensional shape
Walking with us without a sound,
But thoughts drown it so it turns to
Darkness.
The clouds hang on us like a bad smell
euro-centric attitudes & ego-centric dudes
keep us in cyclical delusion
spiteful smiles caress our mind into a false abyss
Forever Lost in a definition of bliss
The proof, is in your shadow..
When the sun rises, death capsized the soul of the shadow until another night
Orange lights give off the sense of fore-shadowing..
As the author of life scripts our existence
show resistance & we face a painful truth
Tragic shadows paint the picture of pain, flashing turquoise off the wall, blinding sight & the ability to hear,
We'd be lying to ourselves if we said, we had no fear.
Some will say they're Simply shaky imitations, but then what are we?
Concrete validations
filling the spiritual voids in our soul
With dark, black holes,
Wandering aimlessly with us..
But with careful reflection
We won't slip into nothingness
Ever pondered the Life-Span of a Shadow?
Simplistic minds attribute it to light reflecting off an object
inquisitive minds however, abject..
Perhaps they've seen, the consequences..
When man chooses not to reflect..
Another great poem. Really enjoy the poetry posted on here.
ReplyDeleteI interpret this one as being about our darksides, as in the
wrongdoings we have committed in the past & how not facing up
to them is neglecting our spiritual growth & that the way to
grow is through confronting our shadows ;)
lol wow exactly! who is 'anonymous' btw?
