Scaffold
(A Poem-Prose written by Martin Eden on 23 October 2009)

The light shines on the
          scaffolding of
          conundrum
As the victims fall in
          their various
          ways
Amid a hushed silence
          driven by
          money
So integral to the interplay
          of power and
          submission

Current mood: <|;^)) Monocontagion
(A Poem-Prose written by Martin Eden on 20 October 2009)

A facile facade fading
Delivering unto death
A lifeless life
Monocontagion
Of a powerless elitism
Caged like a cut flower
Amid pangs for meaning
Marketed as favouritism
As firm as an Arctic thaw
And does the spin give rise to a second chance
Or crucifixtion at the self
