POETRY
By Anand Jaggernouth “Kinetic Creation”
In this spring of 2005 I decided to grab that high school diploma that I avoided for the last 2 years. As it turns out, once you are 21, you can no longer achieve a true high school diploma. In the less than one month it took me to finish up all of my classes, I wrote a lot of poetry. I’ve often longed for love but rather settled for creative monkhood, as a sort of religious retreat.
It’s funny how in creativity, our true desires appear despite our current actions.
Kinetic Kreation
You came into this life as a lover
lungs which inflated
for many odd years
without influence,
giving good reason to breathe.
Fallen Sequence so perfect yet
the first star seen
inquires nonexistence.
With question,
Give good reason for oxygen.
Where are the wishes
time bending power
…regret…
is this over understanding
an opinion of knowledge?
Engineering genetics and break up
variation in a state
remove love and create mates
remove love and create slave.
Is this pain
binding sinews, scarring skin
toughening, and moving this hand?
Kinetic Kreation
in a life so potential.
Regret again.
