They say poetry is the most sublime form of expression. I wouldn't know . .. I don't even know what that means. My poetry barely classifies as anything even mildly resembling verse. It's amateur, it normally doesn't make much sense, and you're free to interpret it. (You see, unlike some people, I agree wholly with the fact that poetry is subjective, and can be seen from more than one paradigm).

The Fourth Epoch




"Heaven on Earth",
Is an oxymoron;
A fairytale, more like.
The most optimistic will, 
At most, call this purgatory.
I lost the little faith
That I had in us.
It feels now, more than ever,
Like the end is near.
Somehow, that's comforting.
Do what you want. 
Say what you will.
The end is near;
The Fourth Epoch is here.

That's reacting eactly the way the terrorists would have wanted you to. Action and faith is the only way out. And I know you know that despite all that you've written here.
