WHITE ROSES

Red horizon, sunset beach
Cranes fly over the moon
Artificial reality removes
time, condenses motion;
Sounds collide ghostly echoes 
Adhere to the walls;

Institutional humanity
Created and fortified
By judgments, opinions
And medical melancholy

un scripted performances, 
rages in a cage,
humanity undervalued,
brains unplugged, fed a diet
of labels and acronyms, 
mentally incomplete
Unable to mount defenses

held back by imaginary
boundaries, a Labyrinth
of altered consciousness,
capricious, raw, unsettling;

white roses pirouette
within a glass house hastened
by the clock completing timed 
synchronized routines repeated
daily, solemn, systemically; 

Icy rain, frozen window pane,
fairies dancing on the rim,
Star to star, to the moon

Mania manifested fearless in 
Raven hair, red hat dancing with
Shadows, giggles erupting sporadic,
Eagles carry flights of fancy

as sallow daffodils draped
In regret hint at depression, 
a catatonic companion

Infected minds disrupted routinely
by medical decisions, robotic
White roses deliver good intentions
In thorny silence   

Restless stupor, drug induced
Still life…fractured memories,
casualties coated in liquid gloom

Invisible mouths whispering,                                                       
beware;,white roses lifting their
colorless petals ever vigilant,

victims escorted to cloistered
confessionals,
psycho-babble economized,
sixty minutes of wordiness
psycho babble

tiny sun lit window,
glittering diamond dust
falling, free,
liberated, swirling
around a bald head  

white roses, nodding
puppet-like offering
tiny cups full of hope

curative offerings seeking miracles;
as if they were body of Christ or some Holy Mass, 
repeated, day after day reminding
the outcast of their maladies,

despair, cruel defects,
traumas and bruised ideals,
victims of apathetic politics

white roses, silhouettes,
ever vigilant shuffling in
and out always separated
from cerebral misprints

intelligence in storage,
locked behind
facades of architectural 
esthetics
White roses, shadow origami 
cranes fly over the moon
