life’s fury flows free
troubled thoughts rising beyond
unbalanced power
mankind laughs nervous
common sense shelved and dusty
annoying drama
yearnings for yonder
harking back to days of yore
and the beat goes on

A powerful piece, with a depth of meaning sensed behind each line, each phrase. Your last three lines have a particular resonce for me.
