Held sway
The poetry
has fled
Leaving in
its discorded
Wake a vacuum
The forlorn
wailing
Of wind
across its void
The only sign
of its passing
The poetry
has left they’ll say
Through Ignorance
And Contempt
In a world
where Idiocy
Held sway
To be smart
is Bad
To act Dumb
is good
In such a
world how could the poetry
Not wither
away

Great poem Chris. Ignorance buries words and lives. (Hugs)Indigo
ugh....ignorance will suck away the arts surely...i hope though you are well...as poetry seems to be pouring out of you...smiles....better than the other day?
And after all I have done for you, you go and kill the poetry...
:D

...Sigh.... Brilliant.
a sad world.
nicely done chris.
So beautifull worded. Feel some tears coming on :(
Beautiful words and so sad.
I hope the poetry returns because a
world without poetry would be an empty forlorn place
Poetry has a soul, life after death...read more...poetry of the undead
