The Plight Of A Sage

The Plight of A Sage Elegant tidings fortunate for the small price of a few Prevalent findings of more barbiturates as they confiscate the news Relevant perceptions among the constituents while they sit obstinate and confused Negligence blinding innocence as they are tightening the screws Immersion of a mind totally refined in subjects that are above verbal dictation Coercion of mankind in this double blind computer simulation Conversion of the signs as I’m confined in this inextricable situation Subversion now in theoretical decline as the propaganda train has left the station Monumental shifts in attitude about the latest topic to start the fighting Consequential lifts in altitude as the heavens send down lightning Transcendental bliss then platitudes during the spiritual brightening Instrumental riffs of exactitude as the musical score sounds more and more frightening Calling forth from solitude a wounded wing of the soul expression Falling north from the misconstrued effects of the intercession Enthralling courses force me to conclude that I’m heading for another personal recession While appalling horses of revelations preclude the need for Divine Intervention Contrite and solemn contained in my emotion as the insight slowly fades Tonight I’ll sing my refrain beside the ocean as the water laps and wades So bright it illuminates the commotion while my plight mimics a sage Moonlight obfuscates my devotion as I turn to the next unwritten page The End Copyright Elizabeth Moroz
