Crazy Mumblings

Crazy Mumblings

A Poem by kingblaq
"

Follow the masses, be a loser... Blaze a trail, get hanged for it

"
1.
Pick from the junkyard of unrefined knowledge
Learn from age, the lies of the truth
You will find many answers to life's three questions
What was? What is? What will?

 2.
The path of life is through the valley of death
The path of death is too good to be true
Right is stressful, wrong is easy
Stress begets rest, easy begets regret.

3.
Your sadness are cards on a political table
Be careful where you laugh, it threatens the powerful
Let the sick be sick, for they shall get pity
Let the healthy wary, guns are pointed at them

4.
Love your enemies, hate their ways
Wisdom is crazy, logic is sane
Be smart, find the truth in my lies
Dig deeper, there are words between the lines

Author's Note

kingblaq
An ancient man (or woman, hard to tell) said most of these words to me in a LUCID dream i had yesterday (april 12 - the morning of my 20th birthday) - Creepy stuff.

I still have trouble understanding some of the lines in the second verse myself.

Whoaa...this is such a powerful and creative write. Much truth penned here so eloquently. You are wise beyond your 21 years.

An inspirational and also spiritual, a write that came from a dream. They are the best! Sounds like you had a visit from an ancient sage. Awesome!

Keep penning, you have so much talent poet!

I just think this whole poem is dope. I understand what you are expressing, and still feel like you held out. Creative. Unconsciously conscious, good work.

I enjoy how your poem tries to find a happy medium, but like most things in life, it is difficult to do. Stanza 3 is ripe with wisdom.. even if wisdom is declared crazy in stanza 4. This is perplexing and deep. So many lines to read between.
