Description Your evil annoyances,
Quickly creep into my life,
Smothering everything.
It gathers within my mind,
Settling on anything decent,
Covering it with a filthy layer,
Of your never-ending arrogance,
Coating it with your ignorance,
Until it is hidden from sight,
By your defensive, denying ways.
I choke on it as it engulfs me,
Desperately I try to cast it from my mind,
With no hope.
I can only be free by ridding myself of you.
So I gather the few untouched remains,
And use them as rags to cleanse myself.
For your consuming wickedness,
Is as unbearably breathe-taking,
As the dust.

i love it and maybe i dont understand what you were saying but what i thought was powerful stuff

"Your evil annoyances"

a bad influence/ old boyfriend /the world

Until it is hidden from sight,

all good intention lost to the worlds way of doing things

Desperately I try to cast it from my mind

your tring to over come the worlds views but they are all around and its hard but you not giving up i the optomistic part

So I gather the few untouched remains,

i get what the world hasn't ruined and try to fix it

Is as unbearably breathe-taking,
As the dust.

you have it hard to think because your mind has been tainted
but as you speak you are tainting other minds for better or worse changing peoples opinions

you would like my poem called Kids of the Nation
awesom stuff

Wow, your insight was very cool. To be honest, I write words with multiple meanings so that any view is welcome. I try to keep my work open-ended. If you give people an answer they will stop searching...and if they stop searching they will forget to think for themselves.

I like the way you think. I'll check out your poem.
