    The sidewalk at the edge of town
    laughs in exigency
    It does not want to end
    it does
    The other universe
    dichotomies of incomprehension
    are comprehensible
    Are the hallucinations of children
    really hallucinations or are they
    repressions of the inconceivable truth?
    The rhetoric of literacy traps one in the spiderweb
    of discourses, each attached implicitly.

    Glimpsing ineptitude, sighing at slanted
    documentaries, residing in impermanency,
    laughing at attempts at irony and
    convolution the
    Dissolusionment pervades,
    no, perverts.

    it's like saying to me, that the sidewalks are trying to exist. This poem seems to be a finger up at reality and co-existance. mahoosive!

    such interesting wordplay and thoughts; I particularly liked how it almost seems to turn around in paradox, it makes this a very enjoyable read! particularly, I thought the ending was wonderfully powerful...

    that rocks! thanks for sharing :)
