Frustration Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

Sorry
a noble sentiment.
Never meaningless.

But incapable
of changing
what is.


Or has occurred.
Useless.
Sterile.


Without integrity sincerity.
Reconciliation fortitude.
Rebirth is stillborn.



Present repository
pain absorptive
wallowing insanity.



Sorry
a noble sentiment.
Never meaningless.
But incapable
of changing
what is now, dark disgusted, manifest.


If it remains
in splendor spite heightened
ignoble glorious dishonourable disapproval.

Glorified sufferance
hypothetical vengeance
self imposed isolation.


Seed genuine germinated
complete compassionate
heartfelt repentance.

Is this then treasured purified
trusted washed clean seed,
phoenix tender love; newly sin free sown?
