chaos

By Sketso

driving, burning, churning...

these vibrations threaten to free a beast
whose feet have long been locked in concrete

blissful paradise, a world of perfection
isn't powerful enough to serve as a cage,
no matter how many wish they were here.





seems I always want what's not good for me.

    Very nicely done; many can relate to this, and it's nicely composed. 10.

    Interesting. This piece makes it seem like you are in a situation that makes you happy-- you wish you could stifle your desire to seek out more, but forbidden fruit..... tempts.

    I like to put myself into a poem, and reap the emotional benefits and deficits. I feel like I've been here too. I just have to wonder if comfort is mistaken for happiness, though.

    Ahh... muddier of waters, smudger of lines. Taunt me not in my stolid stance! :P
