Sound Off

 

Never confuse shyness
with a lack of self confidence..

In fact those of us who value silence
over bloviating displays of arrogance
choose not to join the chorus of ignorance
that these days serves as currency
in a bankrupt world where volume

is valued over substance..

So take a verbiage time out ...

Stop your yapping

for a fleeting moment

of glorious quietness...

 

You may actually hear

those who stealthily roll

with thoughtful contemplation

muttering to themselves

under their collective breathes

what an obnoxious ass you are

The Oxymorons

 

We both knew we were not built to last..

and yet here we are...

Chugging up this mountain steep ...

Forever trudging into a stiff breeze...

A frickin relationship cliche are we..

In desperate need

of perpetual therapy..

but then again..

after a thorough and complete

couple examination

the shrink would conclude conclusively
that you and I

were never meant to be..

Though I would beg to disagree..

Our mutual dissolution

while probably advisable

and rationally inevitable

would definitely wreck me...

Cause you see

in scientific terms

we are the perfect anomaly..

The storm which brings serenity..

A cacophony symphony..

A joyous solution..

Greater than the sum

of our disjointed parts

  

 

Wrecking in Technicolor

Our friendly corporation

of all things virtual reality
for a slightly exorbitant fee
can modify your temporal lobe
for the glorious purpose

of colorizing your dreams..

Of course with every tech innovation
there comes the insidious

disclaimer side effects
such as everything you now view consciously
will now be cast in black and white..

Sort of like your narrow take on politics
