Mark Koplin Poet Lyric

Tempted To Madness

Refrain, a lethal old devoid truth, perspective and one’s grasp of reality
A soul paints with the scent of forbidden fruit and heinous words of profanity
A dupe and his lyrics tempted to madness

Michelle Faulkner September 14, 2020 at 8:47 PM This makes me wonder - whose perspective is the mad (insane) one, and who is the judge? Very complex in few words, Mark~ Mark Koplin September 15, 2020 at 4:57 AM I'm glad that I wrote something that makes people think. That makes it more fun. Thanks Michellle!

Jenna Logan September 9, 2020 at 8:05 AM This one takes some thought, and I'm still thinking. Woe the dupe who pulls his own strings...THAT is madness. Mark Koplin September 9, 2020 at 8:11 AM Right. Welcome to my twisted mind. lol Thanks Jenna
