heya, im back after a beatnick inspired sojourn, and a fairly new twist to my poetry, so, here is my Kerouac styled poem, with modern relavence

Despotism

No lies, this occupational slip-stream persona of brain, strains to understand the thought and the why of death, and whose left hand sinister slide derives he end of conscious star-head inspirations of a god-hammer smote, wrecking Da Vinci thought only to break down the human to a Machiavellian automaton, capable only of solitary sleep and a filed walk life, broken down by a paranoid plow hand guillotine for stepping out with a right foot painted with blue berries and blood.

Nice. One point. Up where you have the words "left hand sinister slide". Sinister is Latin for "left". With that in mind, down where you have "a right foot painted" may I suggest "a dexterous right foot painted" as dexter is Latin for right. Have a great day! http://i94.photobucket.com/albums/l108/AbsalomKane/Smilies/ThumbsUp.gif

i was refering to the latin derivation of the word sinister, i think the original is "sinistra". but i didn't know about dexter, i think i will add such a thing... thanks

It was hard to read, because you wote your poem like it was a sentence. Anyway, nice one. :p I can't wright a decent poem, and I don't know what you and Uncle Pen are talking about; you see, my tongue doesn't have a flair of languages...

i beg to differ, the statement "flair of languages" is in itself a poetic thought
