Donkeys are nothing
Like monkeys
The former walk like heartless robots
The latter have options to walk, swing or jump
II
Cats are no bats
The former are forever walking thieves
The latter, forever banished livers of daylight
Each sect nursing its scandal
III
Fishes have liberties in seas
But know the fact that they can turn dishes
Upon earthers’ wishes so the beauty of birdy flies
Can never bring them out on their own fins
IV
Know you, like I know me
Love you, like I like me
Nurse you, like I nurse me
No matter your stature, you have a fracture
A fracture of wanting an addition
An addition you can never get
Believe it or not, many want additions they find on you
And so it goes
That wanting steals limbs of living
And connives with time
To make you trip on time’s slime
Into a heated hole
On that ride, you realize too late
That you never paused to live

🙂 There is no bad writing though. There are bad interpretors but all writings are meaningful once we get the meaning after reading.

Yeah I know what you mean.
I’m sure that some people thought that “Jabberwocky” by Lewis Carroll was stupid nonsense, but I happen to think it’s absolute genius, something I could only hope to write one day! 😉

Exactly what I meant! The stupidity of an art lies with the interpretor and not the writer.
