Myth Making
For your tropes,
having not lived quite with them,
I've aimlessly wandered around
fishing out the crumbs
back to your first wave,
so how you came to be,
I think I know now.
I am this way,
I have this set of features,
so yeah, being interpolated,
or worse,
it's always a piss poor,
shrug back into
oh yeah, yeah I remember this,
the sigh fried into
the morning mist
of swamp sounds.
These aren't quite my tropes,
so I tend not to exploit them,
unless someone else
thinks they're my tropes,
then glazed over,
in a trance,
performing not my actions,
not of my time,
I draw first generation,
second natured,
with unimaginable ideas,
packed around a city section,
coughing out fibreglass,
this insulation from within,
though it isn't mine.
Really great poem. And how often do I see through trope lenses...
