A Hard Reset

A hard reset. Broken bottles, deflated balloons, bass clefts. Rhythms and blues, jazz and straight razors. The party favors draped around ankles. Diamonds are dead ends, live wires, limelights, whiskey sours. Instant arrangements between lonely strangers. Cash angles and colored lines stretched across the city. Light landmines. Firewalls. Life hacks. Playing every takeback. Streaming justice. It's not just us. We're all in crisis. This operating system is full of malware. Who is running the diagnostic?

Beautiful words, Maurice. Thanks for sharing. Definitely gifted in the flow. Part of me wish it was longer, but I respect the length of it. It was like a good digestible. I was able to just sit and actually, I played it twice, and I was just sitting in the silence after it ended the second time, just recalling what phrases stood out the most. And yeah, man, good work. Thanks for sharing. You have a gift

Thanks, man. I really appreciate that. I'm glad that you enjoyed it and that it's resonated with you. And I appreciate the compliments of the utmost. I'm following you now, and hopefully I'll put some more poems up so you can enjoy them. Peace and blessings. Bye
