Poems and Short Quips - 14. Derision and Desire
Aggravation lingers
And scratches at the eyes
The never-ending struggle
To exist with what belies
Trapped in bleak discordance
We claw hard at bitter roots
Seek solace for our errors
While cinched in disrepute
Limits of expression
Lure heat to fuel the fires
Bring derision to the table
And suppress profound desires
Intentions can’t foretell
A lone man’s disposition
In a world which spins eternal
We each need recognition
Emotions have been broiling at the surface the last couple of days. Thanks for reading.
