A Modern Poem 2014 Poem by Danny Draper

A Modern Poem 2014

Rating: 5.0


It needs to be a bit random

with words

Arbitrarily

Spaced


And meaning esoteric

That a

PhD may trace disclosing ken


It must obscure feign denied
self-indulgence
My pain it can be yours,
Not Really Yes!

Insert A foreign word

Oui!
Injected
To

Assure learned pedigree

Asymmetric

Dysphoria
Dystopia

Diaspora of the
Aesthetic from their amenity




(Inexplicable extra spaces)




Expelled to a longer description,
baren expanses desolate
To reflect
And
Medicate

: (


(Random emoticon then bracketed line)


TTFN (abbreviation, you know why) lol

Ask a question no one
Cares to ponder
And will soon forget,
time lost?

Readers lasting reward

Solemn regret,

Almost
Forgot,

Aged remorse,
Sated critic's appetite,

Gunin bada!

You have done it again, Danny...taking what we all know as true, and plating it for us to feast upon. I am always satisfied when fed by the banquet of your thoughts. Another tasty write for us to wash down....cheers! And PEACE be found through poetry....

Lol, the the modern life could fit, wouldn't we be so much more fun filled, if we'd create our life as the poem shown here, with a drop of wit? A lovely read, started my morning with raising smiles, thank you!

Think I'll stick to the old-fashioned boring rhyming variety Danny! ! Don't 'get' much of this modern stuff.
