Poem
Modern Consternations of Lament Contradictions and formulations of thought that bridge the edges of time Benedictions and combinations that evolve into the refined Jurisdictions and innovations that are galvanised by crime Crucifixions in the courtyards of those who draw the cursed lines A damsel in distress crying for all the loss that cannot be expressed A shadow of progress dying while the youth look unimpressed A moment of redress that’s logic-defying as it leaves me thinking I’m depressed An ancient cultural head dress with colours electrifying a people that cannot be suppressed Curious children at the gates of a billionaire peering out among the harems door Spurious wills then hate the artist lying dead upon the floor Furious villains berate the terrifying dread then perpetuate the horrors but what for? Injurious killers negate the life defying leads that impact as they infiltrate the peace of the broken and poor Acrimonious alimony for the wife and children while the fathers left to bleed Sanctimonious sermons in the alley and stadiums of evangelical greed Ceremonious services in the galleys of a political theorist bought down to his academic knees Non-harmonious melodies causing sonic felony’s as they try to control what you see Commodification of the spiritual as they sell toxic positivity Solidification of the chemical as they try to buy more than just market productivity Transfiguration of the polemical as the mood broods for civility Modification of the heretical as we kneel down before the Nativity Fastidious retention of a fact to prove a point that needs verification Insidious inventions that detract from the joint venture of innovation Mysterious momentum of a contract the won’t endure the effusive commendation Odysseus intentions redact as the mention of epics make me cry out in lamentation Copyright Elizabeth Moroz
