Plethoras

Sit at the table full of dilemmas, Borrowed nightmares, dark agendas Cornucopia of vile things tendered Know this, you wont be remembered I saw you cry silent in the corner, The plethora too much, warn her Not to sit down with us, my dear angel Not this black table, this twisted angle Such murderous thieves, here we are then Tabled by such almighty clear sins Bleeding profusely through, hidden conclaves Of vacant hearts, table of knaves Here to conclude what we already know That mutual decision flow Impossible to reach, at this dark table A plethora from hell's stable.

A dark verse that says a lot. The last line wraps it up perfectly!

Thanks Mrs. Linda! Glad you enjoyed it, poetry that makes us ponder tends to make our brains wander, and a wander is not such a bad thing :).

Tim, I'm not sure if this was your intention, but this table of dilemmas the makes it impossible to reach a decision made me think of the budget stalement in Washington. The silent one crying in the corner there would be a dark "angel," Tim. Brilliant write for my favorites! Love, Carolyn

Very interesting perspective Carolyn, perhaps it was my intention, perhaps not :) Have to let the reader decide on that. Thank you for your kind comments and I am glad you enjoyed reading it.
