Greetings.

As an artist, I enjoy many different (yet complementary) means of expressing myself.

It was a while a go that I last wrote any kind of poetic prose, therefore I looked for a group to which I could publish my first return to this medium in some time. Without any preparation, I have elected to create from scratch this piece, spontaneously, hence the title...

Let us commence!

"I have somewhat struggled lately
aspiring to attain a state
of peaceful calm and harmony
within the pendulum of fate

Journeying on a path abrupt
circumventing dread obstacles
at times, the flow, I interrupt
striving for kinder spectacles

I haste and tend to lose balance
a little more than I would need
resorting to a lighter stance
so I avoid to fall and bleed

The weight of loss and tragedy
halts the will to a passive state
therefore I must, quite thorougly
forget its bitter aftertaste

I know the means I must adopt
to free myself from these shackles
yet, emotionally bankrupt
I fail to create miracles

Still I shall find deliverance
once I can remember my creed
for dead leaves are the sustenance
of fertile ground to sow my seed"
