Troy Jeremy Nelson Poet Ghazal

My Name Is Transformation

whats in a name
what do we have in common
the list the changing rules
the game of the treasure
the game we play to strategise to keep ourselves alive
shoe
shoe
shoe fly
im tongue tied
got your marble in my pocket gonna walk around this box
ring your bell in record time
never forget this
where we hiding now

I'm on my way to you
where are you
I'm on my way to the place there isn't
im on my way for them to find me
the abstarct in the middle
the inbetween of everything

whats in a name
whats inbetween you and me
what ghosts and chains whisper in the wind
lists of lists
and in the box
3 different colored numbers among a box full of objects

rules for fools
rules for fools
play to live
play to get rich
or play to wash your hands of it

seven to one
seven to one
dont forget there is a past a precent and a future
from shoes to pumpkins
from lanterns to christmas
gods plane ticket 
rememberance to forgiveness

time bomb tricking

Caroline Cécile Delacroix October 15, 2009 at 9:53 PM Interesting write. I found a lot of spirituality in what I have read so far and that includes your poem. A thought provoking write. I was attracted by the title, because I recently wrote a poem titled, "Transformation". It is not the same though. Yours is more thought provoking. Thanks for sharing, Caroline.
