Hall of Mirrors (Deflect and Ricochet)
By: Uriah "The CivILLian" Walters
Deflect and ricochet
Everything you see
For everything you see is but
Ricocheted and Deflected verbatim
Verbatim memory commision through mirror images
That mirror appearances 'til you commit 'em to memory
Panel to panel by heart is every reflection
From gullible naivete that slowly bends into erogenous erotica
Unfamiliar faces we get faced with as we pump the blood of impatience
Embracing the laces that strap together these visual mazes
Now all we do is pinpoint to these urges and cravings
Alerted to ineffable mirages of fragrances
Mesmerizing to painlessness
Blamelessness
Carelessness
Monotonous Embellishments
Until our conscience ponders the evidence of our innocence
Only to see the place we flourished as now a labyrinth
That holds a lab rat of claustro- schizo- psycho-
Proportional Un-abortionable In-decipherables
All due to the glance that led to defamiliarization
With thine own anatomy or insecure psyche
The main targets of the hypothesis questioning these anonymities
Scattering about loose comprehension sporadically.
Think about it, meditate it
Give it meditative thought litigation
So that by law you won't be submissive
To the curiosity that takes interest
And maybe, the true you will display
Once you learn to deflect and ricochet

Note: Okay, .... :( I've been trying to "dumb down" my poetry so as to expand in my poetic prowess. Well, its not so much "dumbing down" but exploring unfamiliar sides to my writing. It's supposed to be a fresh slate where I pull the carpet of understanding from under the audience so that you don't get used to the pinballing.... But I couldn't help it, lvs. Consider this to be a fix.
Also this Hall of mirrors uses the rhyme scheme in a way to portray the reflection of oneself, so if you get confused at any parts don't worry about it, because that's supposed to happen. :)
