Cold flow such thoughts from armored steel embattled, will they never yeild? Emotions, to dull finish ground, embraced, can no surcease be found? Might gross distorted image fly, no more offend my sight , that I alone, may cause it to disperse, at last be rid of this dread curse? To know of warmth, yet feel no heat. Mechanics of a cold heart beat within, lies chest-deep locked away, that which I might become someday. To mold a key, to spring the lock in irony, against the clock which mocks my moves of leaden hands deluding me, I understand. Detachment, which has built these walls which thouroughly encompass all such feelings, would these words suffice to penetrate my own device? |

Doc, Awesome write. I imagine you are done with that key by now! Everybody thinks of changing humanity and nobody thinks of changing himself. Leo Tolstoy |

Larry C, Thank you my friend. Yes I suppose I am.I've always enjoyed paradox (to me) it smacks of the ultimate form of humor.Thanks again. Doc Noah, Thank you. I suppose I do ramble on at times, however this was not my intent. Were I to analyze this piece if someone else had written it, I would say the writer has issues with self-worth (don't we all?),and may possibly have been institutionalized at one time or another, but then, who's to say? Doc Martie, You are a treasure PIP is lucky to have. While you may not realize it, I am trying my darndest to use more descriptive phrasing in the works that I post. Your vivid imagery is an inspiration. The grass is always greener, but were it not for you, I do not think, could put to ink, that certain color blue. Doc |
