Stark

By Stephanie Sideways

Everything you need for life
Fits one arc?
Stark

Morning graveyards, silent except for
Song of Lark
Stark

Raving madness takes hold and
Makes you bark
Stark

Wounding bluntness of a thoughtless
flippant, succinct remark
Stark

Barron, the searing hot desert
Tempting to disembark
Stark

Broken mind, shades under depression
So very dark
Stark

Winter mornings. upon a bench
In empty park
Stark

All matter that existence here
constructed of quark?
Stark

Plainly stated and deliciously true, even to the deniers amongst us. Suggest re-edit with "Center" selected for Text for some surprising results, sometimes, cheers Stephy! In summation "Arf, arf!" (get the butterfly nets he's at it again)

Arf Arf ? What does that mean, in summation? Guess I shall google it. Yes, it looks better centred! X

That's raving madness taking hold and making me bark, as you hypothesized, cheers and a bit obsure, sorry

I really like the different examples you use. How life is a melting pot of irony, pain, and craziness. Another excellent write Miss Sideways ;)
