Hi LBM,
thank you for reading.
“futility of cyclical
pseudo theoretic, worthless contemplations! “
Good for the soul, however!

Wheel
L. B. Mek said:

(great read, dear poet
your thought provoking writing, did it again
got me rambling, displaying that crazy, in me
I try to keep hidden)
gyrating wheels, imagery of the \'out of control\'
spatial clusters of lightyear distanced galaxies
as tilting disk spheres, are they - too, out of control?
a mass of happenstance, awaiting
that flick of chaotic chance
to explode, Proud
and unleash a new wave of life, so we don\'t feel
so alone?
either by accident or purposed, I ask honestly?
at this point, who the F\'k cares!
(if by design, obviously humanity is currently
too inept, to glean its meaning;
if by chaotic flux, then so be it!)
just, let\'s get on
with LIVING IT
(tick tock
tick tock
tick tock
that\'s that nock of belated realisation)
we\'re wasting existence
in our yearned escapism - futility of cyclical
pseudo theoretic, worthless contemplations!

Power2

L. B. Mek said:

\'Power,
control,
subtlety
of approach.
Come in
from below.
Infiltrate
unseen.
Injection,
directly in.\'
Indeed! Insightful as ever, dear poet
thanks for choosing to share your wisdom

Paradox
Coyote said:

Why indeed? Terrific write John. Much enjoyed.

Paradox
L. B. Mek said:

why is it, we never assume
they, like us
were fallible, and so
wiped each other out
and created
what we assume as being
\'the big bang\'...
how\'s that for a twist, lol

Hypnotics

So true John, we need to walk \'the path less trodden\' to get away from it.

L. B. Mek said:

\'Infinite
futures.
Future
you’s
ghost like.
Depending
on choices\'..
insightful commentary with arrowed aim
drilling to excavate and unfurl
a gleaning of consequence\'s: sequences
outing those truth\'s, we wish
someone had told us, way before
we: learnt our Math, of life...
(poetry, any of that great metaphysical generation
would have been proud, to claim as their own, I think
a thought provoking read, thanks for sharing dear poet)

Menticide
Goldfinch60 said:

Have things changed since 1984, I don\'t think so, they have only become worse.

Coyote said:

Wow John, you really hit paydirt here. This concise verse taps into the present chaos perfectly. Nicely done sir.

War
Goldfinch60 said:

They may be controlling us in many ways but some realise this and are looking for better individualistic ways to move on.

Andy

War
Coyote said:

The war few see coming. It boils down to whether we serve technology or technology serves us. Welcome to the machine. Excellent poem.
