In disingenuous defenseless dreams of the damned have wept
They awaken within sempiternal solitudes that they have slept
They're above all asseveration of tenacious tears they accept
For inside patricentric passage of time becomes illogically inept
The axiomatic assembly of manqué multitudes in pacifistic plight
Their damnation dorms of diversity desecrated upon a fatal finite
Humankind’s humility a harbinger of ritualistic recrudescent rite
And sorrowful sins syndicate with vigorous velocity and appetite
Their altruistic ambient soul tangled torn beyond comprehension
Desolate deprived within a deceitful delight of a demons detention
Isolated and audaciously abandoned onto the grasp of evil intention
May love levitate their tragic turmoil and align them with ascension.

Each Poem aims to embody a truth
Every example of Rhetoric only aims to persuade, to triumph, to decieve
Poetry is too pacifistic, too gentle, too honest to have a goal, to change the world, to pierce a shell
Because when has a truth, something you know, ever been as important to you as something you BELIEVE?
The truth never set anyone free; it cannot break the cage of belief, and that's the truth.
Not that you should care. You already know Everything that you know.
Sorry, this is not a poem. It has a point
