Aphelion


Look but never listen,
Interpret this as inhibition
What is left for you to gain?
Rampant childish temper,
Difficult to remember.

The fever that left me bruised
With your enduring celerity
Debilitating my wishful thinking.
How should I begin to absolve
The chemistry of your mistakes?

With what can I replace
This great anomaly?
Slow hand motions signaling
Realignment of the soul
Premonition of release.

Deviating from the narrow
Contemplating origins for
Dissolution of integrity.
Interchanging intensity with
Illustrations of  impatience.

I am but a half soul
An elucidation of savagery
A creation of disassociation
That likes to play God
Once in a little while.

    Hmm...

    Your subtle rhyme scheme, and obvious width of vocabulary make this piece unignoarably deep, this piece was like a glass of fine merlot, stimulatiing every sense, down to the last drop, or word in this case. Youi've done an exquisite job passing your message to the reader, that is, if the reader has as broad a vocabulary, or experience with google. >_^

    i think we all like to play god here and there, never easy though, that section reminds me of a poem i have which i may repost later today. i like the alliteration here too in the fourth verse especially. a good poem, great use of language.
