Mission

Missing image

 


Beauty and meaning
Sex and love
Small gods and wordless thoughts

Control, control... This is control...


Are you not elated?
First images, geological erections
perplexing in the absence of fluid
imposing plans
colossal wilderness orchestrations –
a sober instance
(and the world watched, hushed...)

Affairs of passionate meditation
the human self
exchanged with (his master’s) likeness
haunted by the results of scrutiny
artificial life forms
mirrors of deepest secrets
random re-generation not possible
objective observation
a highly-ordered likeness
of your own

                  desires

Control, control...

    this is a truly impressive piece - the carefully placed ideas - the organization and structure and wording, the way in which this piece was thoughtfully composed... this speaks volumes it is touching and, in places, nearly lyrical... it speaks of some of the most human and relatable conditions and struggles...

    impressive indeed... it is a pleasure to have found you...

    Yes, mostly 'cause there's a new poem by my dear Friend to feast my eyes upon. Very cool penning, Sweetie. Good luck in the contest. Wanda
