Labyrinth of Sighs

Labyrinth of Sighs Wondering through a labyrinth of sighs More platitudes with attitudes that never question why A litany of afterthoughts about where we go when we die An emboldened range of rude retorts refuting the reasons why I cry A canon blazing wartime over a century ago The night sky spent stargazing, wondering what we really know A multinational conglomerate just phasing out more duplicitous advertisements that “flow” A hungry orphan on a street corner, with nowhere else to go Self-aggrandising promotion everywhere I seem to look The wealthy uprising causing commotions, celebrities writing books A typhoon on the island coast, Turkey on the day the earth shook A morbid day that hurts the most, An undignified Capatalist crook The arrogant certainty of western superiority The way the monotony forms around typecast minorities The precedence of material goods conspiring to take global priority The contradictions of individualism that consume the vast majority The medical anomalies and surgical advancements The incredible atrocities of cosmetic enhancements A formidable ferocity of genetics and semantics An incredible philosophy of frenetic theological pedantics A sincere gaze of solidarity into another persons eyes A mere phase of different polarities that use scientific graphs to signify A Purple Haze of creative improvisational genius that cannot be quantified A confused daze of inconvenience as another witness is proven to have lied Returning to the central point of a theoretical discourse Concerning a fundamental joint possible hypothetical recourse A burdened soldier after war suffering the agony of remorse An ancient boulder from the shores of civilisations geographic historical course A curious mathematician, an inspiring original think The spurious contradictions of a political candidate on the brink A furious proposition concerning a scandalously placed eye wink Human connectivity and the endless search for the missing link Copywright Elizabeth Moroz
