You're just '' That ''

Lorenz

When the writing reflects only the ghost

of  a mind brimming  in the void,

 fractured wedding's dusk ,

trapped in neurotic's meanders...

Flavor of the boundless in all impossible,

messenger of the passing clouds  

and  believer of  mirages...

Flame burning within you,

nothing more than voluptuousness 

of a laughtable bonfire in search 

of a few embers that are too polite 

to be honest...

Poet, bewitching counterfeit who forges 

a thousand deaths you never lived ! 

 Your verses,make such a racket ,

 that fools mistake for  organic music ! 

 Poor ego ,emerges from the remnants of lord Byron ! 

Pardon,to be so cruel for your tender ether ,

and the wound I carve in the silk of your sentimental soul ! 

 Yet  rejoice- all this wreckage can be fodder

to mediocre inspiration ! 

 Under your powdered mask ,between grimace and melancholy,

walled off in your  unsaid space-time ,

upon the ink of your insane silence ,

take off your crimson nose  which frightens 

the lunar infants ...

  Midnight's arachnid ethyl dance .

  '' You'll be a buffoon my son ! ''

    Step mother said .

So,did you mourn a life as a clown ,

or did the gibberish of your lyrics ,

mockery of your poor shadow  ?

  Guys,this the story of a  jester  

who dreamed to be a poet .

 Every paths of the life ,unravels into the dawn

you never chose to meet ...

 You're  just '' That '' !
