~ HUMBLED MAN ~

~ HUMBLED MAN ~

I sit in ambled streets that meet
In corners of my room
A place where naked, I can think
And roam alone, in this the womb,
Of fluid concentration

That comforted place where intention greets
The loneliness of being alone
A brick wall of constant, bloody, defeat
Where each day's a fight into the bone
Of self-inflicted persecution

I am a man of no value of late
(quotes my silent partner)
Becoming a banner of some debate
A black smoke of brutal darkness
A requiem, with no resolution

That veil draped and glorified
Holds no sway in my swimming
For surely the magic in having died
Is that the other side, is living
And sings an opus, with shiny conclusion.....

Tony Taylor

Hi Tony,

Wow! What an epic poem. Great to see you back. This write was very much worth the wait. It's hard for me to pick my favourite parts, but the first and second verse really speak to me. A very well crafted piece. Pinned for perfection 📌 as you would often say.

Hope you are keeping well. - Syd xo

And!!!  You do not dissapoint!! Your words resonate so deeply Tony, you'll never know. Beautifully and deeply written from ...angst...hopefully conquered...or at least abated for a while, you really do have a knack of wringing out the deepest thoughts and moulding them into stunning poetry. Look forward to your next!! X
