Platitudinous ponderosity
All these nouns sound so silly
A bawdy outward display from ostentation
A twist or fold from overt placation
An act, an instance or state of expansion
Increase in size from flatulent action
Assuming what is not natural or real
A false display of affectation or zeal
Pretension and haughtiness
It’s distastefully adorned with gaudiness
Promulgating esoteric cogitations
Articulating psychological observations
Ingesting superficial sentimentalities
Beware of platitudinous ponderosities
Resolution:
(And to all those who attempt to fleece
I have made a call to The Dream Police
And if you must know, his name is Rick
And he’s in band called Cheap Trick)

The deep fault of the human race
is that there are no individuals any more.
~ Søren Kierkegaard
Pixels in the machine it seems
Articulating world schemes, twirled
Reality for those addicted to a screen,
Too timid into be seen in between ~
Inventions of mad men with intentions of perverting
Common sense, it’s so passé
Loving everything but Roget’s suggestions~
Even poems must have an ending!
Menageries of words saying nothing, galleries of pixel
Animations replacing animates en masse
Nothing leftover for the poor,
who don’t exist except
in old picture books.
Time divides the line,
We define the ride,
Coinciding with the Divine,
Colliding atoms combine,
Creating the outline,
The vibrations shine,
Aligned perfectly,
Reflecting colors in a design,
Collecting together intertwined,
Winding through space,
Finding a dense place,
Playing chase with particles,
Articulating a form,
The normal procedure,
Reality's best feature,
As we build our creature,
The teacher of this experience,
Experimenting with existence,
Measuring distance in increments,
Continuing to make imprints,
Each instant forever embossed,
No moment is ever lost,
Reach across your limits,
Admit you created it,
Sit within an open mind,
You'll find time open wide,
Dividing the line,
Between now and the Divine.
alert, alleged, altered armed aristocracy’s armament,
arranged around Allah, aroused an array of arrestive
arrogant allegiances. Arsy-varsy artfulness articulating
artificial artsy-crafty assertion, allowing armadillo army to
advance.
The floor is consuming me conspicuously,
While I'm staring at the ceiling ridiculously.
I can't move, no matter how hard I try,
Paralyzed, I feel; I can't deny.
I'm screaming and gasping and dying and crying,
Panting and trying. Yes, trying.
I try, I do, trust me, I'm trying.
I'm alive, but I'm dead.
Maybe it's all in my head.
It's contagious, like lead.
There's an uneasy, hollow pit in me
That won't let me be.
It's haunting me everywhere,
Ruining every smile I share.
It's getting so heavy to bear,
Insufferable, its silent shriek
Conveys the world as bleak.
There's no self;
Nothing matters.
You think I need help?
What's the point? Everything shatters.
My face is as blank as a canvas, crisp and pale.
Tears articulating art, flawed and frail.
I don't care, I don't care, I don't care.
Easy to entrance the sycophants watch their helpless dance their back and forth swaying and swooning, in cunnilingual somniloquence.
Droning and drooling with flattering and fawning, turgently swelling, spouting placating pleasantries, a mess of gushing adulation.
Self exultation, craving congratulation by consensus for another conventional sensation, clamouring for congratulation in lurid inflated infatuation.
Curtailing castigation, striving in strides as pedestrian asperation gives rise to typical inspiration, stillted it saunters soulessly, provoking predicable platitudes.
Dreary dedication denoting the humdrum and the ho-hum, tirelessly tiring, offering effortlessly banal bestowments bequeathing a tepid tranquillising testimonial.
Uniform, unchanged, unilateral applause, amplifying abysmal analogies, articulating dearth depictions of derivative denotations.
Cryptic quips collapse carelessly caused by cumbersome correlating contradictions, deviating detrimentally forth fatuous flutterings.
Stale sentiment, sterile superfluous suppositions, garishly guilded in grandure,
Repetitious rudimentary ruminations, repackaged and retold.
My intertwined shrine, beating eternally within a cosmic trochaic, as min
Mystic troubadours tell tell heart, shalom, I beseech thee to stay calm, oblivion
In articulating the orator prodigy, they too, let me down with the subtlest clue, refrain
Serenity taken a vow, to greet the suffocating spur, speech impediment to rush , her lame
T’was plethora a remnant efforts of lonely mourner days and nights, so long to belong
Sonorous, I was a reverie there, of your playful churn , yours pleasant companion
This day, with you in me , you stay there, festive to know my may
To rejuvenate a soul sharing you and me, splashed once to say, wills met the other day!.
My short story continues with this insightful excerpt:
A Century Turns: Soviet Union's Life Expectancy: II
"A fictional perspective of articulating an ambitious nature that hinges on varied facts," ... by the Poet.
And now ... the school bell has rung. The park that he pleasures in both muscularity and mentality, ills in parity--in a nutshell--the school has taught him that the eraser is the better half of a pencil. It is always the seldom used that comes to the aid and heals the whole abused. That illuminating factor was his focal point that would encourage his future from the descension of the crown, and to the ascension of communism's embrace.
