Premium Member The Zen of Ice Cream

A frosted divinity
Chills the soul
Inviting a state
Of mindlessness
Eyes close
Chocolate lingers
On the tongue
A cooling chant
Rejoices

If the parachute of understanding doesn't open in time,

Man

into the abyss of mindlessness would soon himself find!

Premium Member Mass Hysteria

Movies these days are filled with violence Perhaps one reason for this rash of mindlessness Pushes one over the edge When already on the ledge Perhaps one reason for these mass killings we all dread

Left and Right

mindlessness is possible
if you've lost your mind
left your mind in left field
and left it left behind

righteousness is possible
if you've lost your rights
righting wrongs, right away
on the right side of the fence

Premium Member A Word Or Two

I tried to write
oh hear my plight
it has become wordless night.

The pen stood still
no words on page I fill
no matter how much I will.

So the page is blank
to many coffee I have drank
into mindlessness I have sank.

Time to turn out the light
dream of words in the night
hoping for some ideas and insight.

Premium Member Evergreens of Low Expectations

Sometimes it seems as if
Everyone has gone to sleep
Even while the sun shines,
And there is no gloom of night.

The world is full of vapid conversation,
Evergreens of low expectations,
Empty thoughts,
Valley girls, 
Cups of coffee,
And jiggers of gin.

Poets are waiting 
To bring the frozen people,
Kicking and screaming,
Out of the chaos of mindlessness.

What Am I

I am a malicious whim
Born of ignorance
Bred into mindlessness
Nothing if not perverse

Dark and detrimental
Leaving utmost carnage
In my wake and defying
Humility and compassion

I will take you to where
You would laugh in staccato
Or feel somewhat smug
Exploring your relief

But you won't win with me
Your bad karma will hunt
You down and haunt your
Dreams amidst self turmoil!

What am I ?

Finito!

The end, at last, is glorious,
If true,
Concluding the mindlessness given,

But having learned this much
Of you,
Mind change is perogative driven.

Having built up hopes before to
Be free.
And clear of a harrowing bleating,

To have them dashed upon rocks
At sea
And your absence be only fleeting.

So perhaps this time good luck will out
And reveal
What has been incognito;

The elusive outcome achieved and
For real,
That at last it be ended, finito!
