crisis of belief
by Christel CrewsArtificial joy must be created
my entire spirit crushed
deep inside me whispers
its not enough
False hope makes my heart sick
a dagger thrusts into my dream
determined to continue on
hope dashed on the rocks of reality 10/29/2009 Author's Note: just something that came up tonight out of nowhere. struggling with some changes we must make in our little world and i'm not taking the change well, obviously...

| Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 09/11/12 at 10:56 AM this ode expresses powerfully how I feel about artifice when it comes to joy or any other human emotion. lest it is the genuine article it may as well go by the way side, because it misses the whole point of the human experience which must be real if it is to be anything worthwhile. |
