Broken Albatross

sorenbarrett

Things that should not be, became

Things that should not be known, were revealed

Now understood, that which has no name

Things that have no end, no beginning yield

 

Knock on wood, rock, paper, scissors, a coin toss

A bent knee, a broken albatross

Midnight's kiss of dross, an embrace

A double cross, a Janus face

 

Muddy waters, disgrace, a broken tooth

Burnt offerings efface a fortune teller's booth

    Atrocious atrocities always arrive abominably. It’s there though, that whole ignorance is bliss thing never lasted long enough for me,
    Like Sly said, if you dance to the music you’re gonna have to pay to the piper.

      Thanks Bobby I appreciate the review and comment.

    • L. B. Mek

      Brilliant!
      infuriated passion, purposed
      to inform with poetic eloquence
      (I read and learn)
