Dashed decisions
Bitter taste
Your Crooked heart
You can't escape
I've come to find
All this life-
a delicate dance
We engage
as we sway,
With each moment
A myriad of ways.
A thousand directions.
Tiny gestures
Of intention
This way, and that.
With Clubbed force
And cruel eyes.
You think,
With snide,
"All the world at whim."
But if you only knew
Not even a shrew
bends (as flowers do
Beautiful in bloom)
Toward that fool.
The pendulum doth swing;
The polarities
that bend
Cease at both ends
leaving the mean,
all that remains
Is average.
Take heed,
And amend
your narrowed ways
and fate
before it's late
And all that hast past
And all that you've made
Is but a dream,
and gone again.
Awake like sunlight
Dances
On the forest floor
Pure and lost
A child of valor
And delight.
A year disappears
Like a butterfly wing
Leaving not a trace
In this place
And do believe
When it's said
No one makes it
Beyond the time
Alive
Elapse in moments
Defined by your presence
The exchange of life
Is yours
With it
without you
The wheel turns
