Forever invalidates everything
That you believe in but a more
Definitive expiration would not
Upholster my manic sentimentality.
–
My mind poses as a spacecraft,
An angel spinning toward endeavor
A precipitous lunacy spread
Across panes of glass
Like the treads of an outcast nimbus.
–
I recognize the loser within
By the recumbency of your lips,
A tangle of excuses
Snuffing the philosophy within.
Whether this planet or another
I’ll never say that which the pen
Cannot more deftly borrow.

I think I figured out the source of my WP problems. WP is attempting to schedule my posts, it is saving the dates of the drafts and preventing immediate publication which means my dates are a day off because I save them at night so I can think about them and post in the morning. I can’t unschedule once it is scheduled so I just have to redue the post from scratch. I am reposting this now.
A shame, because excuses sound like empty! I like this poem!
thanks Leovi I am so glad you liked it 🙂
I
want
to
live
on
the
spacecraft
called
Enterprise
and
fly
through
the
universe
passing
planets
and
angels
alike
forgetting
about
the
lunatic
Borg
as
I
endeavor
to
spread
good
will
and
remove
the
tangle
of
thread
that
wraps
us
in
lies
and
secrets
I
want
to
lose
the
doctrine
rhetoric
and
false
trails
spinning
around
us
words
and
beliefs
left
by
those
who
say
the
status
quo
is
all
there
is
I
want
forever
to
be
a
better
place
What a beautiful wish. Star Trek is so thought-provoking I have been watching through them as an adult. I saw episodes here and there of the various series as a child but wanted to see everything
I am a Trekkie, love Star Trek:) Thank you for always responding to my responses. I appreciate it very much:)
Me too XD My pleasure!
Another goody Yves. You can schedule your own posts. Do you do the quick posts or from the main dashboard?
Thank you Laurie! I want to publish immediately I never schedule but somehow or another my posts are scheduling by using the date the draft is saved and it is throwing things off.
Damn, WP can get pernickety at times Yves.
It really can Laurie it really can
