The Ground I walk a lucid path With tear drop footsteps Dripping down the walkway Leading to a place where my Mind cannot corrode Like it surely has in the past. Sorrowfulness cannot break me Unless what not can forsake me It might be best to just take me Simplicity be not able to lie Down and forever fear me Like my feet upon the earthquake ground Something else is rotting open Something ajar to let out the Tears of the eternity. Tears of acid to surely burn me. Like plants without Water sucking seeds I float away from this land And this reality. So when the torture time Comes calling back to me I must fall back down to this Highly decorated travesty. Called earth, Called home, Called humanity. My feet are hitting something, But what could it be? The Ground? Yeah, that’s it… "Give me a museum, and I'll fill it." |

I love this. 'Like plants without Water sucking seeds I float away from this land And this reality. So when the torture time Comes calling back to me I must fall back down to this Highly decorated travesty. Called earth, Called home, Called humanity. My feet are hitting something, But what could it be? The Ground? Yeah, that’s it…' So placid...good metaphor. |

Smile. Sometimes the first word out of my mouth upon awakening is "damn"--as if I'd missed the bus again. This reminded me of that side of me--at best, a reluctant participant of life somedays. Have a hug, Ed Grim.  |

Like my feet upon the earthquake ground Something else is rotting open Something ajar to let out the Tears of the eternity. Tears of acid to surely burn me. Really liked this Ed! Great work! The soul would have no rainbows, had the eyes no tears. |
