Sour Ambitions of a Puny Mind

Contrived to be relevant
An extreme subversive 
of distorted concoctions
While having his stricken soul bare
And denigrated to a faceless crone
For his vicissitudes are an improbable casualty
Of a broken soul....

Listen to poem:
Constant denigration
wears you down
you feel so small
as your efforts are
downgraded with cast-off scoffs.
Your pearls bedraggled,
lack lustre,
displayed dimmed and dulled,
squelched by doubt,
smeared in fear.
Duet performance discordant 
sung in disharmony
with lead player out of tune,
tone-deaf.
Belittled, you be,
and bedraggled becomes you.

Paranoia

This paranoia is trapping me like a ghost,
I see the spirits all around me,
And I don’t want to be the host, 
They’re on a scaring spree:
Before I die I want to be free,
Oh, the life I lead,
I just need to see,
This sacred plead:
It’s killing me, oh the things I see,
So paint my portrait,
They’re right below my knee,
I feel denigrated:
Oh the webs I weaved,
Maybe I will be able to leave.

My Next Ten In One Limerick

Woke up and these were on my mind.

Away, stay, say, may.

Waited, adulated, emulated

Contemplated, ill-fated, denigrated.

Send, extend, bend, attend.

Console, extol, sole, troll.

There, care, share, where.

Utmost, perfect host, boast, ghost.

Talented, prevented, consented.

Situate, hesitate, wait.

Obstacle, ridicule, mule.

Your limerick challenge for the day.
