All it takes is a date to break a fast while it lasts all it takes is determination to break a habit with consternation a fast lasts as long as one abstains from toxins to clog their veins better to go without vain treats if its the other hemisphere one seeks. but when east collides with west and the two hemispheres can never meet to say it's the other side you eternally seek puts you in the category of the forever meek; hated for lack of affluence from dominant tribe hated for the label that affluence prescribes on clearer accounts it's not well being that's despised but the means it's enforced that makes the civilized hide. the fast is broken by both the refined and crude determined order has gone awry by corrupted moods.

but when east collides with west and the two hemispheres can never meet to say it's the other side you eternally seek puts you in the category of the forever meek; hated for lack of affluence from dominant tribe hated for the label that affluence prescribes on clearer accounts it's not well being that's despised but the means it's enforced that makes the civilized hide. ~*~ We choose our comfort level - some of us need "just this" and others "more of" - and when you mix the two beasts in one house, such wars... Our earth is just such one house.... some start out with so little, and blame others for having no more... some start out with even less, and rise above... such a mixed lot, we are. An excellent write, Martin, but then, I am never disappointed, ever, when reading your works. I do so appreciate it when you kick my mind into reality, softly, but surely. |

Some would have even been content for less they governed a lot discontent at second best |
