Upsidedown

Logic falls down
In tedious frowns;
Reason now clowns
As feelings drown.


Sense fragile change
In bonfire strange;
A dying range
In trying change.


Word patterns tell
Of odd dry spells;
Verse rhymes that gel
Chimes where touch dwells.


So fashion flow
In afterglow;
For all you know
Passion can grow.


Upsidedown world
In fearful swirls;
Feel surge and twirl
Of hollow world.


Yet in a mist
Death damns wish list;
A brutal fist
Forfeits life's gist.


Be beyond blame
To cast good name;
Yet just the same
Do light a flame.
