poem 5 :3, this was based from a dream.
--------------------------------------------
I drank a cup of malaise, ate a slice of discomfort
constraints of danger binding me down
Fools standing on a precipice talking as a cohort
The smell of delicacies makes me frown
Of shades of Robin's egg blue and burgundy
They attempt to construe the wholeness of me
"So, they say you are a wunderkind. The gifted!"
Mr. Fancy-pants says mockingly
"Of course he is, after all, he's part of our brethren."
Miss Americana denoted with false glee
"But, he's different. A prolific mosaic, crafted by the Saints."
Little Prima-donna said, her eyes all too sarcastic
"And? Why should we examine him in a different light?"
Sir Orthodoxy asked, chewing japonicas on a stick
"Hold your gaze yet Orthy, we need him moored unto us."
The High Priestess declared
They stare at me with assassin eyes
I have no choice but to be scared
"His difference constitutes his own devotion?"
"Damnfool, he's supposed to be the Chosen!"
"Ugh, don't be serious, he is such a fake!"
"Hush Prima, you're acting like a mistake."
"Confirm one thing for me, dear guest."
A look of nonchalance, I let them take the floor
"Show us your talent please, at your vest."
I guess it's not good being a loathsome bore
Why not give it a try?
"I'll start with the fancily dressed man, he is a clown."
"Blondie, can you even sleep with eyes awake?"
"The other fancily dressed woman is insecure."
"And to discern the young boy is such a piece of cake"
Four pairs of eyes looked at me in disbelief,
the fifth one elated
"And... what about me, darling?"
As she stood from her levelled throne,
that which I stated
"In my eyes you're nothing but a puppeteer,
destined to be my killer.
Through locutions alone, that which I fear,
schadenfreude is your eternal thriller."
And then, mysteriously, they were gone
Vanished like the fleeting mist
The tables and chairs of times foregone
Can only hold, one's wishes blissed
