Poem Number 19337

2000&Gone

The three pronged ensemble belong
beyond rational classification. In
form like gray techno sculptured and
scalded rainbow rays, their profile is
thus: First, as always, are the Monied.
Ignorance can ally with wealth and
results in them taking care of their
own. Second are those who chose to
eat the red pill and forced to live out
life anon, look at the past as gone.
Worse are last, yet feel they have
the run of the world, as freshly prepared
by Politico-Media Agincourt.
The criss - cross hopscotch office maze
never ceases to amaze me as I watch
from here. This bird's eye view highlights
the truth without giving the game away.
The breeze block building is a real thing,
painting these Perspex days. The 9 O' Clock
gridlock is a waste of enviro-human
resources. The ant lined sidewalk walks
a talk I don't understand as I pass on by.
What can be done about it?
A moment's lapse and all is hatched
in a hay bail of opportunity. God sees
nothing when he's off setting our
lives in clay. Protesters march the trodden
path and complain. The rest jest, vex and
then fight their own. Some years pass and
a season gives us time to believe in what
we lost when trends became all the rage.
What can be done about it?
Now its time to settle down again. Too
much concern has been sung and spent.
Perplex paranoia and concentrate on the
road ahead, for when the bottles line up
against the wall, one will always fall and
something will have to be done about it..

What is poetry if not a stage for profound thoughts?

So is writing of any kind, form or style, Monsieur

I didn't expect a reaction to this poem and didn't expect a childish battle of wits between anonomous commentators. I can confirm that writing is indeed something but I don't know what. Thanks for the useful feedback though.
