Unreason - By Bob Atkinson

Unreason - by Bob Atkinson "... ode to those who teach creative writing at the college level, yet have not the talent nor understanding required to produce something worthwhile ..." to listen graciously then turn away feeling for the first time wonder at his sayings carries burdens newly minted for my life on lumpy pavement simply put this wreck of words drives not my lucid statements in fear of simple castings made those so hard to correctly gage find difficulty in believing what should or shouldn't stand feed me what to this date has not been allowed percolation to equate justice circumcised against wispy thoughts berated metaphors mixed until complete that nonsense we all believe in can only drive us deeply down a path toward firm unreason

Loved the last stanza. 'can only drive us deeply down a path to firm unreason.' A unique perspective, I must say.
