It's for you
original poetry
Segmenting the world I inhabit,
it becomes modular architecture
I can gaze upon admiringly,
and stays safe enough for me to nap within
on life's lazy weekends.
Yet still, it is flimsy enough
to coexist with the confidence
that I can crush it with a brown fist—
a cellophane construct;
everywhere synthetics, everywhere dross.
all so beautiful, a gradual decline,
a sudden flight—dash, comma, period.
giftwrapped up so nice, take it:
a piece of my heart covered
in glitter, colored tissue, and bows.
(I didn't want it to offend so easily,
so I lovingly covered it with those.)

Like having your breath stolen but by subtle and sneaky beauty. I read this piece a few times, so I could deconstruct its effect. There is a certain down-troddeness to it. The poet despite being surround by wealth and pretty things feels his heart/his love is impoverished and so he must dress up his offering of love with the material. But then how could an impoverished heart write such a poem.
I don't get to judge the contest but this is a winner. First post on steemit I read today. Was feeling a little morose. The coffee hasn't kicked in. But wowzers .... now I feel better. You set such a wonderful standard for poetic art here, Daniel. You are very very well-deserving of the praise you receive. And whoever 'you' is ... she will be stoked:)

Lol @segunreus! First someone will have to bring it to reality. It's 3D concept art of a "modular, industrial space." The artist is an architect who designed this with a 3D rendering software.

Be keen on having your breath stolen bar before ingenious next sneaky beauty. I deliver this bit a hardly any times, as a result I might deconstruct its effect. nearby is a a few down-troddeness on the road to it. The writer in the face of mortal surround before wealth after that good-looking clothes feels his heart/his dear is bankrupt next as a result he duty dress up and about his contribution of worship by way of the material. other than followed by how can an bankrupt concern jot down such a poem.
