" IS IT NOT ABSURD..."

" IS IT NOT ABSURD..."

Is it not absurd
That hidden in the word
Life,
All the broken faces
Babies crying in places
Where even the sinful souls
Won't go,
And in this angry haze
Each and every day
We expect to say
I Love you...

Is it not absurd
That hidden in this world,

Waits woeful pain
And people pushing pills
Down virgin throats
Of unsuspecting souls
Whose final occupation
In consideration
Of legions of unbelievers,
Deceivers, and wielders
Of death....

And in this angry haze
We somehow find,
The perfect way,
To say
I Love you....

Tony  Taylor   (Chicago)

Read this a couple of times now !

A lot of your writes are powerful. What you see occurring around you is often integrated into your works. This is done in a way to maximize impact and give the piece increased weight. Very eye-catching style !!! Thoroughly enjoy them !!!

Thanks for sharing ! Best wishes as always !  :)
