And I pose
without repose
the universe grows red with prose
much like a drunkard's nose
A symptom of excess
I s'pose

For some have learned
(that's a strong word)
That pen beats sword
In indirect rapport, at least

Yet others seek
To deafen the meek
So that they might reach some peak
Of peace- a trick!

Yonder, there stands
the one who'll teach
those who won't listen
how to preach
In a new language,
Same old stitch
So that all* might get along

All work for "I"
while some shout "we"
out of conviction**
with(out) glee
Others, to attrition
Speak at "you"
Cause their mirrors broke
And what's a bloke to do for seven years?

*minus those obstinate, obtuse, obfuscating, obsolete
If only they could disappear somewhere in the deep, dark night!

**life without parole

I liked it

the words bounced around in my head just right; i like the way you used the "big words" so easily.
