Welcome

Hello, and welcome to my daily poetry blog. The following poems are improvised based on my day, general reflections, or by just allowing my mind to cruise in neutral without a filter. I have been working on this for something around two years now and have amassed a lot of words. You can either go through them page by page, or check out the "Hall of Better Poems" option in the right column. Please feel free to comment on what you like or dislike, and also subscribe below if you like this sort of thing. Thanks!

(typically I will write down my ideas on paper throughout the day and I may not get in front of a computer to transfer it. So I then dump a few days worth of poems at once.)

The Unblinking Eye

So unclear from where you clamed the mantle of control.
Standing strong,
looking on, unblinking.

Threw off any counter force you met along the road.
Resilient,
staying true, unblinking.

The change from whence you came compared to what you have become,
disparity,
holding fast, unblinking.

The parts you tore asunder less important then the sum.
Resolute,
all the time unblinking.

Every pore is bleeding and the whip is at your side.
Running tears,
and yet, you stare unblinking

This torment interrupted only by the pass of life.
Labored breath,
still you watch, unblinking.

Innocence must first exist before it is let go.
Without guilt,
a smile breaks, unblinking.

So unclear from where you clamed the mantle of control
standing strong,
looking on, unblinking.
