Argument

By Chimauron

One of the few times you will EVER see me make an attempt at abstract poetry... if it's even classified as poetry. It's more of a semi-rhyming rant. And it sucks. You've been warned. Just one favor, please: if you throw tomatoes, make sure they're not green ones. They leave welts. Thanks...


And what is this?
A break from life
A rose
A stunning vision...
What brought you here?
The wheels of fate?
Or some evil,
Not yet risen?

Look not to her for respite you fool
spare not a second glance
she'll see your heart and tear it out
you haven't got a chance

Did you soar from heaven's perch
Or do you hail from hell?
To which place will you send my heart
Once the tale of time the Reaper tells?

What do you think this can come to?
where do you think it's going?
How can you think the best has come?
You always jump first without knowing!

So true...
and yet I cannot help
the rearing of this wild heart
I can no more stop this than I could the wind
My heart is a sail caught in full blow
And I am it's helpless vessel
Though it's likely I'll end up on the rocks
torn limb from limb
and dashed apart

How poetic
You're fucking pathetic
I got us here
Isn't that clear?
You have no chance of survival in this world without me...

Silence!
You've brought me naught but pain!
You isolate
Intimidate
You obfuscate
And promote hate
you maim
destroy
and pervert
EVERYTHING I HOLD DEAR!

So now what? You think SHE can make it better?
Do you think she would want to make ANYTHING better for such as you?
Do you think she is doing anything but playing games?
Do you not foresee the many Hells she'll drag you through?

What do you care?
You, who claims to feel nothing!
To whom life is meaningless!
For whom nothing is enough!
For whom the golden goose would be a burden if the eggs it laid did not hatch!
Why do you fear her?
Is the Logic beginning to break down, after all this time?
Are you afraid of being alone?

...

Well?

...

The typical response of one who has just been shown his own worst weakness...

I hope you're right...
for both our sakes.
