Unraveling


Looking for the center
though none there can be
as tethering to what one knows
is to limit what one could-
in the middle of nowhere,
you stood.

Certainty of mind
yet none in life exists
as falling leaves of yesterday
carried away by the birds-
Make a nest up high,
useless words.

Born again clear
innocence of the child
with world of plenty before
taken from hand and mouth-
A rumbling stomach,
an empty house.

I know the way
they proclaim what is said
is to feed their false agenda
lining the deep deeper-
On horse they stand,
Freedom's keeper.

Angry and bitter
they spit out their poison
screaming into the void
wanting the attention-
Another clap and cheer,
Tagged mention.

Charity starts at home
but for those without door
to rely on others for a life
is to live contained-
Other's held property,
Disposable stain.

The road is made
designed narrow for one
to walk alone and make wider
so others may travel-
Faster and freer,
While I unravel.

Your poetry is such that I often read it a second or third time. Well done my friend you have a gift thank you for sharing.

I like how your poem can be taken several different ways. The identity of the people you are talking about is just vague enough to make the reader question whether or not they are correct in their assumptions. At least this reader lol! Well done!

All of life is vague, those who think it is all clear are not paying attention :)

Nice poem . I really like your poem ......
