As thunderous thunderstorms brew over a rocky mountained view, my musing mood becomes hued with a crescendo of loud colors as the sky is infused with bloody crimson, splattering the cobalt blue sky, forcing me to wonder why even billowing bursts of creamy white clouds cannot cover up the tears I cry in anger and sheer frustration for this human race that must surely face a higher power some day. And what will we say when we come face-to-face with whatever or whoever rightfully rules our universe? For it surely cannot be you or me, for we are too petty, stupid and rude, and even the lowest snake in the grass offers up more honesty and sensibility in acceptance of his position, and does not pretend to rule both heaven and earth. |

thanking each of you for your part, in completing my adjusted view, of the rainbow that hopefully always follows even the most frightening storm |

for some reason, i thought of human cannonballs that go zoom! zoom! into the starry starry night and even the lowest snake in the grass offers up more honesty and sensibility in acceptance of his position, what biting sarcasm on the human race! I had to smile wryly |

At least the frustration is a source of energy for you. A great poem. Thank you for calming down enough to share it. *smile* |
