Final Meaning Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak
Final Meaning
Anger building up inside, putting pressure on my mind, going
ahead, ignoring it's pain, looking out at life, it's glory
hidden, seeking inside, answers to it's plight.
Reverberating down through memories filled with aching,
trying to find a place in life that's not so vacant, holding
down the anger until it dissipates and dies, finding other
pathways to fill it's final days.
Wanting nothing left, emptiness steps aside and lets death
fill it with stately, regal, domesticated, filthy pride.
There being not a thing in life worth fighting for, laying
aside all feelings of worth and becoming dead within, having
found some meaning, never knowing that it has.
filthy pride, good writing, thanks. please read my new poems and say something.

William Faulkner said his over-arching theme in all if his novels was THE HUMAN HEART IN CONFLICT WITH ITSELF. Building on his insight I think this poem is THE HUMAN MIND in conflict with itself. The intelligence cannot make sense of things, it's helpless in the face of all the negativity. I think the best that it can do is make a path through all these negative things and seek refuge in its depths. For the time being it cannot think its way out of the dilemmas. Your poem is a powerful statement of life winning a temporary victory over the sovereign mind. But it won't last, will it?
