Ideology vs Reality Poetry

Here I sit

Culmination of pure

Experience and understanding

And an inability to comprehend

All mixed in

They tell you

Seek and you shall fine

Exactly what you want

In life

Well

When it comes to relationships

That no longer applies

My principles changed

As I saw and weighed

The availability of womanhood these days

The answer was

A negligent case

I stared dumbstruck

Into truth’s face

All I wanted was

A woman

That was sexy and intelligent

My freaky, nasty whore

That was a chef and creative being

While understanding and accepting

Me just being me

And standing

By, for and behind

Me

I know

I expected too much

For one female to accomplish

Spoiled on a previous

Miraculous relationship

Reality set in

No one to accept the position

Abilities lacking

Disinterest in anything meaningful

Times changed

Females changed

Women died away

I was faced with reality

Punching me in the face

With a sledgehammer ferocity

Continue the dream

Of a woman that could

Be a woman with me

Or

Face the reality

That combining them like Legos

Is what society says it should be

And therefore by association

What options are left for me?

My heart use to weep

For that precious, dynamic

Meaningful woman

Relationship thing

Now

It merely beats

Silently

Because it has been shackled to

Truth and reality

Death to

That old

Ideology
