In winters softness
          each flake of snow seeks refuge-
               ill winds take umbrage...

Stagnant World
Ever so peaceful you appear,
Disguising your eternal suffrage.
Silent is your noted fear;
For to humans, you take umbrage.

Yet you try to smile, 
As the crimson stains your body.
You chant “Peace!” in denial,
To your own folly.

Bear witness to carnage;
Bear witness to despair.
For you are the stage,
In which they all appear!

Stagnant are we in turning peace to war,
Leaving your sorrowful mind with a silent scar....

COPLA 67 INVOCATION: This Bad Guy World

“That’s the spirit, Tell the Old Man off!
Who does He think we are, s’il vous plait!
Of course, you’re right.”

If there were a God anthropomorph
Yes, we could all take umbrage and pray:
Universe might

Might we not be an experiment
Of some advanced civilization:
Testing Self Will

Or the chance physical accident
Of Immuable Laws’ equation:
Force renounce will

eclipse an errant eon
inhale discordant ions
exhale insectile icons

disarm misfiring memes
take umbrage under a titanic umbrella
recede from seething red-holes in sinkholes

just so you know…
Helga and Zohar orbit the Moon
a harsh mistress giggles indifferently
a cold cosmos says nothing
you are (not) what you think (you are)

forbid fallacious words
forget wordy fallacies
forgo fatuous wormholes

FYI, it’s Awesome
FWIW, it's Perfect
TBH, it’s FUBAR...
