Is there less of me today
than there was yesterday

when I am breached
like a New Orleans levy
spilling relentlessly
over blacktop
and picnic tables

taking no nevermind
about my path
only rushing
to fill the void

when the ice of my heart
snaps in cold defiance
drifting free
across meridians
and starry waters

knowing that karma
keeps chasing me
with lessons to be learned,
while I don my waterwings

hoping to stay afloat
in the dark.

Indigo

Sea-

Karma... the constant taskmaster! :-) And all we want to do sometimes is play. Thanks for connecting to this offering.

Awesome, dear Indigo! Spill over in love, flood everything with love and karma will be LIGHT upon your shoulders ...

Only love matters:
playful is its true nature
it wants us to dance


Love,

Nakedthoughts-

I hear ya! Karma - the universal leveler of the earthly playing field. Glad to commiserate with you. *grin*

Margherita-
You are filled with such beautiful insight and support for those at pip - not to mention being a wonderful poet in your own right!  Many thanks for your kind words.

DS-
It's the 'in-between' that always gets me in trouble...  But then I do like being between a rock and a hard place... *weg*

Arctic-
Thanks for stopping by and sharing your thoughts!

Dear Sunshine-
You are sweet to keep an eye out for my all too infrequent postings here.  I appreciate your words of support, girlfriend!
