Hey there uncertainty:
Come to blanket my spontaneity
With the gray drapes of entropy?
Paroxysms chattering;
Exhalations of constriction.
Simultaneous opposing visions.
Continually evident in this latest development.
Beating against the sediments
Of sentimental reticence.
Gripping trembling weapons
With shifting eyes
Behind the twitching skin
Of guarded neck.
Letting blood waste,
As it seeps to the face of anxiety.

Surrender to the present moment.
Opening to perceived filth. //
So the artillery may meld
Into bodies of assertion. //
That the fears should evaporate
In their own reflections,
Conceiving new currents of life.

Wow! This is an amazing piece of writing J. The irony fairly drips around the words. Quite an impact. Powerful display of how we can sometimes be our own worst judge. I am new and thrilled to see such high quality in my first read!

Again = another nice write from you Jake wow. The last stanza is brilliant, I mean- who doesn't love the concept of reminiscing about the old, but ready to create new memories; Ready to "surrender to the present moment, opening to perceived filth" as to conceive "new currents of life" -- I love this wording = so majestically ordered.

I was actually expecting a funny, humorous write filled with levity, because of the title "Why So Serious" - For this reason, I may have made:

Hey there uncertainty:
Come to blanket my spontaneity
With the gray drapes of entropy?

into

Hey there uncertainty:
Come to blanket my spontaneity
With sauteed mushroom gravy?

Anyway - an enjoyable read to be sure. Thanks for the share!

Jacquii.
