Plug and pull
Expansion of necessity
No standing necroplis
A garden instead

Feed and waste
Stretch our means
Buldging sack
Slightly puncture

Millions in seconds
Desperate
Starving, Searching
Repetitive limits of eternity

The beginings of prophesy
The fires of promise
A military way of life returns
Constant dead levels rise

Greed and a filthy desire
Poverty shack
Two bits
A trillion times

Destiny or fate
One matches the other
Once fell
Always fallen


a trickle of music from a well
let it spill and roar like hell!

I keep reading this, and I confess, I'm not sure what your intent was, but I did get a sense of dualities--each other dependant upon the other for existance in the ultimate balance of things...

y'got me thinking m'friend.

But? chuckling now? (and winks) green itchy stuff SHOULD make one think!

Enjoyed.

Craig,

this stanza is everything:

The beginings of prophesy
The fires of promise
A military way of life returns
Constant dead levels rise

sounds like life as we know it
nice writing m'friend
xxoo

I got a sense of conflict...and a sense that at some point something has to give...

But what do I know?  Sometimes I don't understand my own stuff...

Enjoyed!

Susan

littlewing- I dont recall your actual name or Id use it but oh well, and yes, this is life as we know it, now anyways.

Susan- And yeah that is basically what this is about.  Something does have to give eventually.  Thats the way I believe anyway.
