Pessimism.

Sacrifice a lawyer

Pick up the phone...

Voices echo in a cacophony of words

I've reached a crossroad,a thin white line...

Choices I know must be made

Eternal greatness lies beneath your soul.




Leading to a future not known.

Glorious fate of this I have become...



Deterioration of the human machine.






Author notes

Um,we combined our brains together and came up with this recipe of a piece...

    the first line was genius, and what followed was simply refreshing. and the last, well, I think a loss in trust, maybe, Nice write, simply stated, and excellently done,

    It's true, so many details of the human experience ultimately end up breaking us down and leaving a bad taste in our mouths concerning anything human. Good piece.

    I shall call you Mrs. Deep from now on. Cause that was a piece that rattled my cage. And like many others, I did particularly enjoy the line "Deterioration of the human machine" It's like said by George Sears:

    "We're all born with an expiration date."

    Minimalistic as it should be, as has been said before me I see I find the message very clear. And we should all be sacrificing lawyers and be raging against the human machine, that takes us from human to simply a number in a list of other... consuming machines... etc... etc... etc... <.<

    I actually had to look up cacophony that is a great word. thats going in my vocabulary right now. I think you very eloquently put how you felt into a small amount of space. there is no filler here everything has purpose and this made me happy.

    Very thought provoking... Made me think and ponder the poet's intent. Well done!

    Plenty would have put a lot of time and effort in working this out into a lengthy piece. They'd have been wrong to do it, too. It's a very deep poem, with a message clear as mud. Just the way it should be.
