Hysteria

by Mark Rawlins   Jan 24, 2016


Deadly serious,
Quiet reflection.
Dark, mysterious
Introspection .....

Beautiful / Ugly
Cynical / Lovely
Living / Dying
Can't cope / Trying

Greedy / Sharing
Needy / Caring
Waking / Sleeping
Shaking / Weeping

No solution? Wanna riot?
Revolution / Peace and quiet

Plentiful / Hungry
Pitiful / Angry
Go left / No, right
Bereft? No shite

Hope and glory
Here's my confession.
End of story?...
Manic depression.

    Hello Mark,

    I like the format, the rhyming, the compactness of each verse and the '/' showing the opposite meaning. It reads well and ends well.

    Take care,

    Michael
