In the wasteland of gibberish, winds burn
with intrepid ambiguity
working with the insolent sun to turn
tides on conformance.
Monstrous waves of compliance
hit hard on the walls of creativity
using it’s longevity to erode
the spirit in cement.
Expectation is floundered
in it’s perilous voyage
as the sun bursts with individuality,
leaving caution to drown and lie
on the ocean bed.
Dead.
And shining bright
a sky littered with stars
for all the world to see
whilst budding enthusiasm
plants roots in the long forgotten
soils.
Ready to feed.
Reminds of a reggie watts TED talk but that’s a good thing. Me gusta.
I don’t know what that is…so no offence has been taken 🙂

Yours makes more sense though!
Do I want to watch this? Are you going to ruin my afternoon? 🙂
No, no its good stuff! I’m not link bombing you, I swear! He also did the hilarious rap parody “Fuck Shit Stack” – here: http://vimeo.com/13897452
Also, to clarify – your poem reminds me of the TED talk because of the deliberate use of gibberish.
Enjoy!
I envy your poetic abilities. You create the most amazing images.
Oh Cat…thank you.
