Burdening

How 
Is it possible to harness energy sufficient for a simple mispronunciation?
Made from miscommunication...
at best.

At our best we tend to fear; succumbing to failure's hardship. 
Countered by an offensive degrade;
shortly mind-coming definition.
Afraid for conformity's confrontational dialects.

Pathologically diverted lifeways missense imperative arrangements.

Why 
Do we be what we are? 

Questionable answers found endlessly.
Unique psychosis's make realm within individual hosts. 
Perceptively construed, separately disjoined.

When
Will we accept our idealist indirection? 
Deviated by selfish deviance;
byproducts of our own deceitfulness. 

Hope
Remains in anonyms who grasp moralizing concepts. 
Courage must manifest promised tangibility. 

Despair
Cripples forces of hope;
Sprinkling dreary forecasts, only to be left in doubt.

Questionable answers are found, such as...
Why do we be what we are?

Burdening is divided into stanzas which I intend to share my thinking in process and, in much detail, explain my thinking direction and feelings involved in its writing. 
-the first stanza is asking us a question how to harness energy from a mispronunciation. Meaning that a simple stutter or mumbling of a spoken word is capable of creating enough energy to change . This may be an inflated argument ensuing to an intended agreement has been unconsciously made. It's something I, personally encounter often as I say things I didn't intent to say and/or mumble while speaking and sometimes I even say something completely different that I was intending. And it's line I wrote "at best" because these things tend to be happening in our worst moments and that's just me putting a positive spin in the poem as I am a bit dark at times even while am putting my own rationalized positive spin. By acknowledging what is wrong we can then begin improving once awareness can be achieve. Which in process toward awareness is not always taken to well by the previously unaware. We are all ignorant to something; no matter who you may be. 

-the second stanza is establishing the culprit. FEAR
and fear accepts defeat and limits human growth both individually and universally so. We fear to conform yet we still conform just enough to meet our individual need. And this can be, of course, defined by short mindedness; essentially lessening  psychological growth abroad. 

-enough said being that my overall objective is to create awareness among social levels that may have the energy sufficient enough to elaborate positive changes here in our personal lives alike.
