The ideal |

What’s mandated must not be a now and ever after deal that ne’er can change or modify what first was thought ideal. Like me first there and then to here a plan’s no plan if I’m not free to formulate a better rule according to the need in me. The deal of then; how great it was, how awesome to believe in you and then bear witness to the scribe who changed his point of view. And I too penned my only name and so I know how moves a one not destined to be bound by love until the changing, changing’s done. But change, my love, before the sun sinks low on the alive and shrouds the dead with past regret until the end of time. A deal’s a deal through changing times; but not to honour the ideal like a cancer to annihilate what still is meant to be! Helen / 7 February 2009 |
