Apathetic Dusty Shelves

Apocryphal embellishments of a non-canonical secret society, teeming amidst a dubious enterprising authenticity, exposure's excessed stormy decay of tormented poet's crushing blows, ego's wild oats fruitlessly sown rampaged rush to save their own flesh, poesy's wildflower blooms wilted under acid rein's torridity of seduction, hence poetry's infertile demise unto dusty shelves' apathetic surrender

Sometimes, well often with me it feels that way, that poetry is not worth it, better suited to be gathering dust on a shelf someplace. Pour your heart out for someone who could care less. Nicely crafted Paloma, your poetic style is so damn unique. I love everything about it.
