as if the poets made any difference
bless the devil for
holding the mirror,
reflecting the truth
of humanity:
the rage,
the theft of
innocence,
the desperate
stink of conditional
love,
the beastful wail
of death upon
the lips of the
newborn,
and curse the angels and
the poets for leading us
to think it could be any
different.

good morning beautiful Kitty I hate conditional love
and for that matter don't understand it
when I love no matter what
there isn't anyone I've loved that I can't say I still love...
I feel the pain of this brilliantly written poem...

I have found the opposite of love isn't hate, it is disinterest. Whatever it actually is, humankind has screwed it up royally.
Thank you for the kind words, crimsin. Very much appreciated.

I totally understand where you're coming from on this, Kitts. But I also totally disagree! The angels and the poets open new worlds beyond this flesh ( for me ).

Thank you, Ahvanti. I dearly appreciate your honesty about how you view this existence. We are polar opposite- the storm and the rainbow.

I see you've been watching the news. To think that devil was once a smoke signal, or carrier pigeon.
The angels, and poets, sometimes dress like sheep.

Re. as if the poets made any difference
I need that, though... the darkness lifted slightly by way of poetry or art itself....
I do definitely agree with you on ref to the state of humanity, you've so brilliantly colored with your distinct bk poetic voice.... it's depressing and shouldn't be surprising... yet, it still is, to me. I guess I am a glutton for punishment.... Har Har (sarcastic laugh).... It's definitely seems time to have that tea party, my lovely mad hatter!!! *wink

Really excellent ink!

My dear, lovely Blue. Our species has found the proverbial rabbit hole and seems not to either question, nor care, where it takes us- Sad indeed.
Your kind words are deeply appreciated Wish I could be there for the tea party- it would be glorious.
biggest hugs/luv's,

We are on the same page, Harry. Sadly the book has a very dark ending.
Thank you for the kind words.

Dear BK,
I feel the strength of desolation and hopelessness in this piece. The rabid filth of greed for power and money especially by those in power has literally taken the human out of humanity. It seems hopeless. Nothing’s changed since the beginning of time but it seems really bad now. The theft of innocence is such a great line because innocence is so fragile and once gone is irreplaceable.
Well written. H🌷

Thank you, Honoria. The recognition of how far down the rabbit hole humanity has fallen can be demoralizing.

"the theft of innocence" really changes the entire view of life from beauty to ugliness.
