Disequilibrium

Neville

 Disequilibrium    

 

There is no such thing as

Equal

It’s a truly mismatched

World

With no approximations

And

Where balance is absurd

There is no such thing as

Perfect

It’s a faulty fucked up

World

Where victims weep in

Silence

And where their screams

Are seldom heard

There is no such thing as

Justice

Or even purpose in such

A nihilistic world

  • Comment from author about the poem: For the sake of poetry.. forgive the use of the F word... .. I heard a child of around four or five use it the other day and which seems something of an increasing trend.. For those who might take offence, I apologise here and now...

    Reality shouts from your piece today. For some of us life and living can seem a contradiction to what is supposed to be. And on spins the planet regardless.

    First class writing again.

          I'm in one of them 'I don't care moods' … but I thank you both for taking a little peek..

            A poet got annoyed at Fido - plus the fact he don't exist! A figment of my nuttiness. A talking, reading, barking, 'watchdog'? Oh yes!

              There's truth in what you write (if there is such a thing as truth). Your words have been uttered through the millennia. Seems it's always been a bad place.
              On another note, it seems the the unequalness is its beauty to some folks.
              A downright honest and forthright poem. Strait to the point. - Phil A.
