Clear word
Sharp sentence
True thought
Cuts like glass
But muddled mind
Twisted wants
Overlapping thoughts
A kind of tasse
Atoms buzzing
World spinning
Mind racing
All is still
History repeating
Feet backtracking
Thoughts overlapping
Such a thrill
Guarded heart
Pumping hard
Shredded nerves
Is this real?
Like broken glass
Fragmented words
Shards re-shapen
Is how I feel
Varying colors
Like changing thoughts
But a broken prism
Is only glass
I'm not a warrior
Just a worrier
All these fears
It's only tasse

Tasse: one of a series of overlapping metal plates in a suit of armor [that form a short skirt over the body below the waist].

Nice. Love learning new words too.
ReplyDeleteThey tore apart my aching heart
ReplyDeleteand broke his golden throne
it drew my soul as black as coal
his heart made cold as stone
Jame Sparks is dead they stole my life
Plunged a knife into his mind And left me on my own

DeleteBotanically 'Syringa vulgaris'
Syringa - derived from Syrinx:
A Greek Nymph - fictitious
She was beautiful and pure
But was chased by lustful Pan
To escape him she turned into reeds
She should have just ran
For Pan cut the reeds up
And made panpipes from Syrinx
And, oh, how she would have screamed
If only she still had a larynx
~
The moral of the story:
Never flee or hide alone
But use your voice-box while you can
Just never to scorn or moan
