The Web Poetry Corner - Chris Lahren - Erosion of the Soul

Erosion of the Soul

by

Chris Lahren

Take me to the inspirational catalyst, the integration of euphoria and
feelings of natural dyes-
Ebb and flow with time.
Around me is a web, keeping out the sounds around me-
trapped within my head.
I salute the wire in my veins-
keeping me socially sane.
I am stimulated with conditioning beyond my senses, choking for air
concocted by maturing media forces...I'm playing cards with shaded
doubt.
The sounds implanted with a carcass defense-decays my brain away with
fast rythmatic bolts of sheer strength-tinged with the shape and grace
of my human race.
Control...feel the body take hold, rejecting the false prosthesis of
mentality. I am not a fool you think I am, born of this earth and all
that goes with it. Nature...grows, gives, and depends upon us...we go
with it. The tyrant, the cool, and the capital mongers...selling your
souls for the good of your own earth-the world you hope exists.
But as you grow, as you take and control...remember this...remember
this...perhaps in bliss...as the earth erodes...we go with it.
