True Praise
by Josh LaMar

Inexplicable doesn't cut it, not 
One bit. Nor do other 'able' words, such
As unfathomable or incompre-
Hensible. (That's not an 'able' word, but
Go with me here). I don't understand how
My world could change so abruptly yet not
At all. I am identically changed
Ebbing and flowing in stone, like an ice-
Berg, seemingly silent and fixed in its
Motion. Rocks and silt swept up underneath
While purity abounds in the cruel ice 
Above. Irony is just a device
Except for when it is real-like when I can't 
Explain it-but true praise is all I feel.
