Definition De La Beaux

Billions of billboards and floods of commercialsBombard and pollute young minds and our valuesWhere social vices overwhelm visual materialSo, what are standards of beauty and virtue?Is beauty really only skin deep, let the young ones judge.Lust and admiration, the thin line now smudged.Confined to the short-lived artificial aesthetic liesLimited to only the silver screen, but…

Holiday Boredom

Here I sit because I did not chooseTo waste my life in the empty living roomBut in actual fact, I had nothing much to looseIt was the holidays, and I was young Here I lie because I did refrainFrom squeezing into the sardine-packed trainThinking of all those who breathe down my neckWill send me into…

Finding Myself And Death Of Complacency

My passionate flame is reignited,Rekindled.When I burnt my diary,I saw the jacinth, red and golden flames.They are just like the ones inside me.Ablaze and dancing,Frolicking, with nothing to worry.My soul is ablaze like forests of maple in autumn.Like Pentium magma seeping from the ground.All hatred, jealousy and anger within me are sullen, worn. It has…

Morning Blues

Stamping feet and furrowed brows,There’s fury burning in her eyes.A flood of tears build up now,I knew I shouldn’t have told that lie She catapulted the nearest thing at hand,And shouted, screamed and wailed out loud.It’s as if she was devil sent,The inferno within her was raging wild. She breaks down and wails,And she lay…

[History class]And so, our dear Hitler…

To My Dear, Slumber

Oh slumberYou’re a very interesting character.You come when I’m in a rushYou leave when everything’s in a hush.In the night,You make me feel like I’m lying on tetherIn daylight,My bed is softer than the turtle dove’s feather. Oh slumberYou’re a very interesting character.Do visit me, in the new year,Be sure to be here.At the right…

Pastoral

The mordants in their noise,the night transports. A means of coming tothe switchyard of the tongue. To have onceset such store by forced creatures.Not changed toward something of my own.The towns raised chaffed seas to ground them.In that frieze before storm you went on.Effigy loomed out of cornfield. Futureinside its trussed forms.

Small Study
