The Uptake of the Disappointment Concept Poetry Book Kemal Faruquee

In Praise Of Those You Have Constructed As Worthless (composed in the fourth person singular)



In praise
Of your
Worthless.(so useless,

you say.
pieces of
bad things)

So, yes,
Not your
Ideal

Of a
(quiet until
commercial)

Harlequin
Dawn.
Or idol

Of blondie
Desert
Guy.

(we understand
geometry, I
mean geography!)

But those
With flesh
Of embered

Flame (what
Does that
Mean?)

The tormentors
Of others'
Devil's

Playthings
(he's deviltalking
now!)

Imagination
The sweet nectar
Swirling elixirs

Silently in
Darkened
Cellars.
