My last poem was written for @sature's #nihilisticrainbow poem competition and won 2nd place! I still would write even if I didn't win, but to be honest with all of you and with myself as well, I love winning things!
So I went back to check the new theme and it was: Endarkenment! What is that? Well I spent a bit of time rolling it around in my head as well, so I hope you enjoy what came out ;p
Here we go!
If you find yourself lost or unable to fathom
the modern philosophy preached by such Mad Men,
when everyone's selling a cure for what ails
but nothing relieves your sickened entrails,
when wise men turn foolish and the foolish called wise,
you must darken all input, shut the faucet of lies.
The same effect that a city has on fresh fallen snow,
the light from trash fires, trash philosophies set aglow
will drown out the light sent here from afar
and block divine messages sent from a star.
Endarken thus, ye of little faith in húman,
Endarken false lights, then stare at heaven.
See each twinkling star and ponder their weight,
from a distant perspective, ponder your own fate.
Endarken all input, opinions and spin,
Endarken and recognize the divine spark within.
Love and Light to All!
