a simple release
can be found
in earthly pleasures.
long gulps of rich wine
wet lips around
dark, round nipples --
time explodes into tiny particles
that dance in the air
and fall to the floor,
making an instant so savory
you can vaguely taste
eternity.
but what of beyond earth?
is it a chain of moments like these
that leave contempt
buried in the earth
once we soar past vital signs?
because reality just reminds me
moments like these
are just a release
from a daily grindstone
where burdens breed
residual obstacles
that make even thoughts of heaven
weighed down by sin
so planting my feet
on stolen land
to stand my ground
is all i have
if i'm patient
i'll find a moment --
with it a release
from these mortal coils
my mind will be still
temporarily settled
without the pressure of
do or don't
now and then
here and now
or tommorrow.

so planting my feet
on stolen land
to stand my ground
is all i have
I particularly liked that line.
Sin a nescessary evil? The connotation of sin an abstract act that is not to be needed in the holiness of the grand scheme! This is a terrible conundrum in which you propose to make! flawed in my brain. Or I guess the former owners brain. We have won. Sanity isn't as hard as he thought. But this is the poetry forum section not philosophy section, so I digress.
The actual poetry is well written.
sin necessary? yes. to some. u may be sane, but I'm not ! lol. i'm good, i'm evil. i like to think i lean to the good side, but ...
thanks 4 ur input
Thanks for being soo... understanding..? *Scratches head in amazement*
I think I have a few poems on here. Reply to them and be mean and talk bad about them and I can reply to augment this whole ordeal. Do whatever you want, just don't talk to styrofoam.
