Stereotypical
A poem from a mere poet, a lover of words and other strange things !!

Stereotypical by D St James
Time cannot only take it away
Distort the meanings of complications
A hopeless bore and hypocrite
Our modern climate of opinion
There can be no doubt or could there?
A fantastic romantic, playing the game
Our modern age has lost our cultural cleft
Valid sense and superior to judgments
Justified in calling it, despair
A crucial question awaits the leader of men
In proclaiming either or - or
Which life-view is life-affirming
Might it lose its appeal inevitably
A portrait of the pinnacle know-hows
Affect ones value-horizon in a way
Predilection for the aesthetic nature
Fulfilling and plausible as it appears
The modern hero, rich, egocentric,
Tragically melancholy, excitingly nihilistic
But daringly imaginative - a fool
A stereotypical culture portrait
