Awakening Contemplatiions

Awakening Contemplations Perception of reality changing in a second The Invention of congeniality as I wait for you to beckon The Australian informality of “yeah whatever you reckon!” The North Korean missile strikes looking to constantly threaten World stability and Universal peace The unpaid rent, a broken lease A reason to vent, an estranged niece A persistent strain of thought that simply will not cease Chemical warfare and secluded drone strikes A Ukrainian counteroffensive in the middle of the night The oppressed peoples will to stand up and fight Searching for a future that has the potential to be bright Ghengis Khan, Nostradamus and Shakespeare No intention to harm , only to disqualify your fears An isolated old woman breaking down in tears A forlorn ex-revolutionary marvelling at the passing of the years The recollection of youth passing by far too quickly A monsterous uncouth agent described only as prickly The bubonic plague recreated and the people are sickly The presidential race and how it’s run politically Beauty and science and history and mathematics All by the bass note as it sounds that fantastic We revere what William Wordsworth wrote and produce more ecstatics As the oceans and rivers fill up with plastic Daring souls on the edge of inventions and ideas The whole on the ledge, financial systems in arrears Climate change deniers red faced as the carbon emission clears Interpol debased as the criminal network sneers Apathetic resignation as life passes you by Magnetic mutations as people begin to ask why ? Frenetic contemplations as salt water flows from my eyes Epic considerations as the elderly prepare to die An evening with Shostakovitz and classical relief An interim meeting with a dogmatic thief A tight fit unit bringing Humanitarian Relief A man that doesn’t know his own philosophical and spiritual beliefs There’s a a path that is right and a path that is taken As you arrive at your future self quite visibly shaken There’s nothing left but what remains to be mistaken And the epiphanies experienced as your soul begins to awaken Copywrite 2023 Elizabeth Moroz
