Gossip.

Gossip.

A Poem by Thomas Fitzgerald
"

A play on poetry I've been reading lately.

"

Standing solid upon the breaking ground,

I yeild to nature and only her not others,

Branded science leaves me here to die,

Not along with friends or indeed mothers.

 

You've felt the strenght of my loving you,

I beg of you no to listen with eager rate,

Do not turn and feel the stab of eyes,

Really, you don't want to feel my hate.

 

Pleading vomit has been sent to kill me,

I slap at motions not riddled with grit,

No movement of legs controled my mind,

The wind now wisps and holds no hit.

 

Borders are failing when walls come up,

Two men refuse to see eye to thought,

Wisdom has no place for fighting war,

Women lend gossip to those already caught.

I like it, its very true Thomas. I enjoyed reading this, it took me a little while to understand the full gist of it. But once I did I was in shock from it, its quite a powerful piece. Great work, get writing, you have quite a talented mystery from you. I like it. It'll take you far, good luck Thomas. (:

A lot of your statements stood out in this poem. My favorite one was.
"Wisdom has no place for fighting war,"
When men with guns and desire to kill go into towns and villages. There was no wisdom. Just confusion and death. Thank you for your powerful poetry. Always can make me think. Thank you for the excellent poem.

It took me a few rounds to get the gist, but finally got it. Fabulous opening two lines... as well I really like the last three! Great bookends to this read.

I see a spelling error??
I beg of you no (should this be *not*) to listen with eager rate
