A Poem I Wrote - Thorough Glimpse

Thorough Glimpse


All it took was a thorough glimpse

to notice the words were just ink,

that there was nothing more to all the

adorations and processions, it was a 

joke. Well played, they concede.

The pages never hurt me, the pictures

never scar me, they never do, never do,

never do. I've played my part as the doll

now let them take over, my time was up

and I was waiting for the alarm to ring.

In cold anticipation, trenchlike, passes.

They regret they dared to own what wasn't

theirs, to overteach the masses. There was

nothing more to it though, it's sealed shut,

airtight and thought-tight, merely

see-through when desired.
