True Like a thermometer we monitor Our innermost feelings of grace In the same place we monitor war In I say, the very same place. Within this well is the cancer of hell Sulfur’s from the abyss of goal Covered by the thinnest veil of a shell As reachable as any shoal Duality is born to our making Either one can over power Our flowers have only the one waking Each one is marked by the hour. We must learn each one to sail our own ship Curry stars and whispers within We must learn to avail the pressures that grip And of moiré and vipers of sin I cannot say that we all will succeed But by all that’s holy there is that need. |

True, true . This is a brilliant poem, I loved your unique rhyme style . Thanks very much . L.of.L. Tom . 'There is only a very thin line between genius and insanity, this is measured only on sucess; I am proud to be considered an under-achieving genius'. |

You wrap your thoughts up so very well, and whether with string or ribbon, set the course for daily thought... well done, our Sy! |

These feelings do occupy the same space and what a cauldron it can be when the acid of vengence mixes with the broth of brotherly Love. |

Seymour~ 'We must learn each one to sail our own ship Curry stars and whispers within We must learn to avail the pressures that grip And of moiré and vipers of sin I cannot say that we all will succeed But by all that’s holy there is that need.' You sprinkle us with such words of wisdom, painted with beauty~ *Hugs*, my sweet friend~  ~*Marge*~~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

You wrap your wisdom in rhyme divine and etch your visions on sands of time with the gem of truth me sweet Stinky ... and every time we learn from your grace. Love the imagery and vocabulary in this... Classic Sy poetry...which is classic cool me |
