Kindness and Lament
Kindness and Lament
Money never to be found or spare
Funny how people just sit there and stare
Honey now you know this really isn’t fair
Sunny for those who genuinely care
Affection for those who are broken and bruised
Reflection for those who are feeling so bemused
Redemption for the poor, the maimed and abused
A mention for those who remain perpetually confused
Confidential information for government agencies
Consequential degradation for high end fragrances
Influential intonations of street kids and vagrancies
Coincidental confirmation of engrained systemic complacency
Monumental invitations for the overnight famous
Continental limitations for the ethically heinous
An Irish poet from the heart whose first name is Seamus
No time to slow it down from the start as we judge the contemporaneous
A memory left to recall and forget
A dream for free theft to enthral and beget
A scream from me bereft of all that I regret
A horizon revealing the perfect sunset
My eyes upon the west for the ultimate suprise
The sign around my neck saying Free the Wise
The last time you checked before you heard the sound of her cries
The perfection they inspect as the middle class sighs
Conversation toward an enlivening future
Invitations appalled by a wound that needs sutures
Imitations of cartoons and comics and Reuters
Configurations of Artificial Intelligence transcending computers
A cure for disease that lasts for all of mankind
A pure reprieve for the inherently kind
A sure intrigue for the weight on my mind
A demure garment sleeve, one whose been left behind
A concert at high noon at the top of his powers
Young Mozart, a silver spoon, before the mood turned sour
Humphrey Bogart begins to croon at the very last hour
A rare piece of art on the moon, beginning to cower
War torn capital cities creating destruction
Forlorn young pretties rejecting instructions
Old and worn committees reflecting complex constructions
A saviour is born witty injecting inquests and instructions
Perspective refined as the studious mind
Gets reflective entwined by the space in a rhyme
Introspective enshrined by the passing of time
A new directive combined with the radiance of Chaplain in mime
A true incentive inclined by the truth of a sign
Communication a source of perpetual connection
Emalgamation of self made internal inspection
