The Path Of Lost Resistance

Copyright 2006 by:  Mark V Sheldon


A humid shadow obfuscates
my once clear vantage
clouding my vista with
gray volatility
dumbfounding my environment

in tense irony of accelerated change
life blooming voraciously
while death propagates
its inevitable chaos
out of the new word order

Wrinkled leaves coldly scraping over
budding blossoms in heat
like old men arrogantly hoarding
memories of the youth they wasted
while storms scatter accountability

Blame always travels the path of lost resistance




You CAN make a difference, but first you should learn how: http://educate-yourself.org/intro.shtml

Mark!  Good to read you again!
Thanks for jump starting my brain today.
I love the way you get me thinking.
Hugs~Nancy

For it was not into my ear you whispered
But into my heart..
It was not my lips you kissed
But my soul.

Bonjours, mon ami!
I experienced my own moments of chaos and  volatility the day before yesterday, when I dropped my ancient rollerball PC mouse on the floor (once too often) and it suddenly chose to go horizontal one way only, vertical up, but not down! ie, there is a new mouse in the house...optical this time, though it still sees the same stuff online day after day, can't seem to re-direct me to a new world order...one where love poetry music and peace prevail.
So good to see you again, Mark!
