       Momentum trips the blind
                To
                A
                Downward
                Descent
                And
                Like
                A
                Tumbler
                In
                Training
                The
                Body
                Forgets
                The
                Pain
                And
                Continues
                To
                Roll
   Until gravity gives pause to the question of why…
   The answer like the wind cannot be grasped
   But its truth nudges the unbalanced
              And descent
              Continues slowly
              And cruelly
              Waiting for
              Honesty without
              Hypocrisy to
              Finally stop
              Momentum’s pleasure
              In confusing
              The meaning
              Of love
              Until we
              Understand the problem…
              It is not God
              Not them
              Not the devil
              But you and I
  And with this realization we stop
  Balance is regained, clarity restored
  Courage wipes the dirt from brow
  As we make our way back to the top
  After reaching rock bottom.

              ...Understand the problem…
              It is not God
              Not them
              Not the devil
              But you and I...

Taking responsibility
and not blaming others
but seeing the problem
at its own root
is the beginning
of forgiveness.

Excellent write, Marcel.

yes, definately bold.
you've poetically decribed a very unpoetic spiral. It's unfortunate how impossible it is to understand from the outside. good one
