Syncopated Soul

Syncopated Soul Voices of reason transfixed by treason, a heart murmurs in the cold Echoes of depletion of a heart in lesion, a face in the mirror gets old The love escaped and ravenously raped, a tired tear turns to mold Where darkness dwells and sorrow swells, walking with a blindfold Life a drowning drain of a punitive pain, a wailful lost in a whirlpool With a destiny in detain a sacrificial stain, a transposable trivial tool Shadows of silence in deific defiance, a master and his menial mule Where winds are rampant and emotions fragment, a cunning cruel I’ve always known and often shown, existence of a fermented futile As I stand alone a despondent drone, spewing words a crying crucial Idol illusions of seditious seclusions, my thoughts begin to be fruitful Standing at the edge of time a new paradigm, a poetic pensive pupil. Music by Sinamore~'Frozen Mile' Sept.11.2018 Second Chance for the Unloved Poem Sponsored by: Jesse Rowe N/A for contest

You set the stage in your first stanza to capture the essence of the title to your poem. The ending line of that stanza ...Where darkness dwells and sorrow swells, walking with a blindfold..manifests the message. True to your theme..you wrote a winning poem, WW.

WW, there are days when it's best not to look in a mirror, but focus on the world outside ourselves. I love the melody I hear in each line and send winning wishes for the contest! Love, Carolyn

I completely enjoyed your captivating poetic presentation, Winged Warrior. The music was the perfect accompaniment to the deep darkness of your brilliantly expressed poem of diminished soul. Best wishes for a win my poetic bro! ~Susan
