A Distorted Mirror Poem by Romeo Della Valle

A Distorted Mirror

Rating: 4.7


</>The clocks, suddenly have stopped,
My alarm goes off all day,
The world has passed- who could last
With angels for company?

Something's wrong-I don't belong
Does everyone feel this way?
Why people do as I think
And act out all I say?

Is beyond reality
And I am not sure if they're real
Or if I am still in the world
Or ever was-has it changed?

Am I just beginning
To see beyond ignorance?
I think it was meant to be
The impossible-destiny,
A proof of omnipresence...
(Or lack o common sense) ...

Challenging. it makes me think. only the intelligent people feel the same, but still, is it not from a lack of common sense? I guess i interperet it in my own way.

This one is great. A sense of humor and questioning what is real and what is not. Are you here or not? Is this real or not> these are the images that this poem brought up for me. I like this one a lot. Very nicely written and very thought provoking

Hmmm, 'A proof of omnipresence... (Or lack o common sense) ... ' a vicious accusation and at the same time a compelling plea to create questions far more powerful than sacred. Pure poetry, excellent work!
