Poem #10

De-Construction

there is no god

there is no love

there is no hope

found from above

there is no truth

there is no trust

there is no faith

just graves ‘n dust

there is no knowledge

there is no form

there is no redemption

or souls reformed

there is no beauty

there is no sin

there is no esthetic

without or within

there is no happiness

there is no joy

there is no rhyme

we can employ

there is no right

there is no wrong

there is no passion

to hold lifelong

there is no day

there is no night

there is no tale

of starry knight

there is no joy

there is no sadness

there is no reason

to calm the madness

there is no word

there is no deed

there is no goal

to fail or succeed

there is no heaven

there is no hell

reality

constructs dispelled

He said, "Why should I tarry?"

And smiled with tranquil eye;

"In destinies sad or merry,

True men can but try."

Sir Gawain and the Green Knight

(Lines 562-565)
