There Is No More... By Kevork K Kalayjian Jr There is no more poetry Love left no traces in memory It is impossible to be funny Cynicism has deformed sensitivity Sex has replaced sensuality It's all transformed to lack of care Viewed in the silhouette of body Listen to the conversational melody. Wait! What's that fly doing there? Why does it fly in the middle of This hospital, white, clean room? As I was saying, There is no more poverty Love has mortgaged memory Caring has been overwhelmed by sensitivity Instincts have overpowered sensuality By reflecting kindness and care Portrayed as a stuffed animal, a Teddy Bear! Exhibiting great skills in the agility of the body Reverberating the proclamation of joy. Resonating the resilience of bliss! -- Kevork K.
