Prompt: Write a serious poem
Also submitted to dVerse Poets – OLN hosted by Grace – the night we choose a poem to submit.
Is Life Always Having To Reduce To Mere Frippery? Is life always having to reduce to mere frippery, those ice cream feel good moments invoked to ward off anything approaching a taxing frown, or wrestling an unresolved disquieted question? Those ice cream feel good moments invoked as stave for anything that would reduce laughter, or wrestling an unresolved disquieted question that awakens in the recesses of my mind. As stave for anything that would reduce laughter, whatever comes to hand will do for combat that awakens in the recesses of my mind, rather than face the seriousness that perches there. Whatever comes to hand will do for combat to ward off anything approaching a taxing frown, rather than face the seriousness that perches there, is life always having to reduce to mere frippery?
