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.
