Picture Prompt #117 (here)
MLMM given words:
streetwise rags bracket implosive creepy
delinquent geometric cheap near extend
implosive (the act or action of bringing to or as if to a center)
ganglion (small cystic tumor connected either with a joint membrane or tendon sheath)
charnel (a building or chamber in which bodies or bones are deposited)
APED given words
I wish, mirror
How I wish to mirror,
the streetwise who takes the impact
from various quarters and still survives
a page of the rags-to-riches stories of success
with encouraging accounts of hard work more than luck
to be within the bracket of people who with courage
created commercial empires providing employment
the few implosive in their make-up to provide the
impetus for innovative ideas for the good of mankind
not the creepy kind delinquent in nature in hues of
cornflower blue that create problems on the deprived
they who very much like to satisfy their weird form of desires
sadly though this is the small category of trouble-makers
attributing to 90% of quirks mankind can do without
a pity though they grow in geometric numbers on the cheap
to extend their bother to near disasters every time
they are a ganglion of sorts best to be stuffed in the madhouse of
haters and scoundrels in the chambers of the charnels

ReplyDeleteMost interesting to read Hank.
ReplyDeleteIf a person has problems they are not burdens, perhaps they just need guidance, I believe there is good in everyone.
Excellent write.
Yvonne.
You think deeply instead of simply!

sadly a society includes all....
ReplyDeleteQuite a noble wish! Loved this :D
ReplyDeleteI like the way you set out your lines in couplets while still maintaining the flow of thought. You have used a very topical context for the words.
ReplyDeleteIt's an aspect that is always there
ReplyDeleteLovely post! New here! :)
ReplyDeleteWow, you whipped these words into shape, Hank! Powerful, especially the closing lines.
ReplyDeleteStuff them!
ReplyDeleteI like how you showed those with honor that we would want to mirror along with the ones we certainly do not.
Clever usage of the words provided!
ReplyDeleteHow I wish to mirror.... deep and thoughtful, Hank. Well done with difficult words.
ReplyDeleteBravo!! Bastet
ReplyDeleteI don't know whether mankind can do without those quirks. Seems to me mankind embraces them, lives for them. I like the darkness here, speaking some truths.
