Brain Freeze
this lyrical poem comments on the rise of right-wing misinformation; which often leads to reactionary, transgressive ideologies.
Self satisfied
By the
Materialistic mind
Brain freeze
Let them see
The curvature
The symmetry
Individual duality
Smooth moon
Blind mind
Out of sight
Out of time
Close your eyes
Open up your mouth
Ego away
Get them out
Cut off their ears
To let them shout
Seek no truth
Retaliate
No need to authenticate
Mind over matter
Minority or murderer
Insidious is
This sickness
Snowing, the unknowing
Ploughing through the powder
Endeavour and empower
Desperate to devour
We need suffering
To realise reality
Privilege leads us
To placidity
Not clarity
Shimmering, shivering
Silently succumbing
Death of the author
A snowed in cabin
An avalanche
Of ignorance
Caved in
Indignance
A mechanism
Of autonomy
Chaos castrated me
Burn your books
Hide from the frost
Conserve your strength
For all hope is lost
