Notes About The Poem

Schizoid World

For millennia, our race has lived a vast success. Hatred, envy, spite, and strife are on the rise. Despair, aggressiveness, self-centeredness. Depravity, intrigue, lewdness, vanity, despise. Hubris, a lack of self-awareness, and trickery. Aristotle's five components have been corrupted. Air, water, earth, and fire are no longer ancillary. Humbly wished to stay alive rather than dead. When I think back on all I've been through, it all seems insane. There doesn't seem to be any way for me to heal. Even if I tried, I'd never been able to reach or even get obscene. On a detail level hit, I was wounded in the deepest part of my soul. It seems clear to me now that my fate was set by my disputes. Before it was too early in the process, I tried tentatively. They've formed outflow and false analogies without any roots When I had all the talent and drive, I regret not doing it smoothly. They think they will be able to detain me after a full investigation They make me feel scared with all they perform I demonstrated to them that they could inflict pain and dejection They're alleging in the flood that they lied about the game. As a leader, I cannot assert that logic will guide my word. They exhibit how to rule for the benefit of their family. They did, however, get the human falsity award. They're simply playing badly and misleading the community. However, it's excessively various to decide. You dared to contact that one strand. You aren't aware when you alter your face. It turns into such a terror-like experience. It's going to last a period, you accept. For the first time, you've been right. It's the unique last time indefinitely. You were harmed, and you stumbled struck poorly. It felt agreeable yet surprising. You said that you felt humiliated over increasing. Pause for a minute to consider; it appears it's an act of futility. When it got back to sobbing in the downpour, the storm faded away. This time, everything had changed after much sorrow. You never know when one door will shut, and another will open.  All the regime crashed, and I'm now being hailed as a hero.  Life is a journey, not a destination; without patience, no gain

This is so wonderfully written Lasaad. I am so glad you didn't leave us in the litany of darkness but raised us up in your final lines. Congratulations on your win and to all of the "heros" who leave the storm in the life journey. Blessings to you!

I am very grateful, Milton. Your compliment enriched the appeal of my poem. I regret if I annoyed you. I would trust your opinion, and I believe you are in a challenging position assessing contests, creating poetry, and commenting, not to mention our everyday life: blessings and kindest regards.
