Satellite

Satellite for distraction

abstract contraption.

Distant device.

 

Sought and destroyed

Distinction made

Sacrifice I gave.

 

It all adds up.

Two plus two equals Five.

Radio oblivious,oblivion.

 

Signals dialed,caught and maimed

Firing cannon,seeks and destroys.

 

Satellite of guidance,

mislead, misguided

Denied and lied.

 

Force to be led

against the night.

Twilight and bright.

 

For seen eclipse

cover and hide

to brilliant.

 

Blind and closed

eyes of shine

Mind of much less.

 

Scarred

Marred

Blurred

and shut.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
