landing in flames

Post by mtmynd » October 6th, 2015, 5:04 pm

landing in flames
_______

the treason of reason
freezin in the season
i chill at the sound
of words that scramble
ramble and i gamble
with the print of letters
one pop at a time
from keyboard to ski-board
i've never felt compelled
or swelled or jelled
with the then or when
by only why's and
i ask is it wise?

questions like ignition
starting the mind
to journey as far as
this jalopy body can find
streets paved by ass-at-fault
roads filled with stone
i flip and somersault
thru heirs of being
without even seeing
where do i land
when i have fallen
from grace?

nice piece mt,
well... the apple doesn't fall far from the tree, so
it's fair to say you will land... not far from grace

and all those questions, I gave up a lot of that, never-ending is not for me
anymore... well, it either is or it isn't, which seems to be enough knowledge
to make my way to some ending
many is a word

if you believe in the collective consciousness...( which I do )....I think it's composed of "love energy"....that if we learn to love, if we learn compassion, forgiveness, empathy, when we pass we join the collection of voices to assist in mysterious ways the process of healthy evolution....for all those vile creatures that abuse and hate, well you won't be invited to sing in the chorus.....or at least that's what I think this week....ha ha.....thoughts, positions, evolve as well....ha ha....so check in with me next month

enjoyed the rhyme and wordplay...a good choice for open mike night
If you do not change your direction
you may end up where you are heading
