LIKE THE UNIVERSE


We are like the universe; scattered pieces of the whole separated by an immense nothingness.

FODDER FOR THE REASONLESS MIND


This is my first entry and it was inspired by Dylan Thomas' Under Milk Wood http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuPO2Kvqlms . I've found a lot of my writing is influenced by his style these days.
                                                                                                                                                     
Can you hear the loud, indisputable fallacies of politicians, priests, parents, preachers, public servicemen, pseudo saviors and the charismatic conmen of the cloak? They tell tall tales devoid of logic - fodder for the reasonless mind.

Quiet, now. Can you hear? They are speaking, now. The rambunctious rulers are speaking. The boisterous Bible-men bellow blasphemy to Sunday sinners and their fiction fills the unquestioning gospel pews. The unionist weaves woeful webs – a revolting ruse – strewn across the blank faces and sponging, pitifully, permeable ears of the mournful headlight-doe-eyed masses.

Quiet. The mind-crippled crowds are quiet, now. The nodding noggins numb and knowing-less. A willing audience They are stirring, moved by what they do not understand.
