poetry and devolution of zeitgeist
posers and
highway men
word salad
conmen hustling
the centuries for a few
vain scraps of immortality
used car salesman of
sadness
quills filled with
snake oil and the
promises of an
enternal eros
there is little said
now that has not
been said better
in some past age
the roses of poetry
sleep in Arthurian
dreams
and the death,
death, death of
idylls
revealing to
all that a fool
and his words
are soon, and
forever, exposed

"there is little said

... totally agree.
The wordage now gets even crasser:
"Brexit means Brexit" ... "America First" ... fools' words are exposed but many can't handle the cognitive dissonance generated by such exposure - and so resort to base tribal behaviour - which may of course be part of the master-plan by those who wish rule over a global enslaved kingdom.

This has a deep nihilistic sentiment for me
The running theme that it's all benn said before and done better before seems to take away a point of any of it;
Loved the sound strictures in
used car salesman of
sadness
Seems to set up a catalyst for the melancholy I read between the lines of this
You could really open this up to broader interpretation if you cut the last two stanza zit really shifts the dynamic for me, but all in all really enjoyed this piece
