(Steemit School Poetry 100 Day Challenge: Day 56) CEREBRAL CORTEX NETWORK LIVE!
Dear All,
This poem is my 56th submission.
Thank you.
CEREBRAL CORTEX NETWORK LIVE!
by Ikhwanul Halim
we are linked inextricably and integrally
the ensuing debacle reminded me of a movie
faking orgasms for money
doing the starving artist thing
another imagined scenario such as
sell my beaded jewelry to various boutiques
around the world
sharing some champagne at a gallery opening
unilateral self-interest publicity and pocketbook
instant forgiveness for our sins
hadn't you even seen the MTV Video Awards?
gods of past cultures struggle to stay alive
dance in strip clubs to obtain worshippers
takes something of you, in return
to not infringe on the freedoms of others
in the heft of a tome, the impact of type upon
paper in older books
suffer from a failure of moral logic
may be a necessary part of the equation
writing formulae on plastic chalkboards
with black markers
having an unusually jovial time for six a.m
a man in deep psychological pain viewing
the world in black and white

Big thank @d-pend for giving me this chance to participate in this event.
An interesting look on the vices of humanity.
Thank you, @firststeps 😊
Hello friend ayahkasih, I will try to analyze your writing.
I perceive a complaint about the poet's task under the pressure of internal and external circumstances, perhaps, even creative exhaustion. In general, there is a certain distaste for the turn that the commercialization of the writer's work has had, comparing work with jewelery whose value will depend on the area of the world in which it is exhibited. The black and white vision suggests a flight in retreat of bright and strident colors, only the basic ones remain in accordance with the fatigue expressed.
You've got me, @corderosiete amigo. I almost fired up all my energy and creativity 😊
