Flood

The words come thick
and fast
the ideas \
took a long time
all
paradoxes in life
the eyes
and the hands
just cant keep up
with the mind



                         #########################
Mind that lay dormant
for a long
drought ridden summer
when the
vultures encircled
and the humans
wrote it off
as useless
irredeemable
is when
the rains began


But that was before
the floods
and the top soil
all gone now
human
ego
and short sighted ness

Fresh rocks
jut out
for another
bout of centuries long
erosion


                      @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

In between mindless
chores
ant like
running between depots
hoarding
accumulating
an occasional gem
shines through

I live in spurts
other times
I just
breathe



                    @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@


Who said living
was easy
Living is easy
if you silence your mind
castrate
thoughts
muzzle ideas

Since that has proved
impossible
time and again
nature
has proved

Life isn't easy
was
never



                    $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

Memory is slipping
arhtritis sets in
solidifying
joints , bones , thoughts , opinions
yet
young we must
remain
flexion
must be retained
lest we
are consigned
to flames
as dead
wood

Hasty
outpourings
are the best
why ?
One ,
it is short
Two,
it is Pithy ,
Third .
You do not wait
for pity
to be offered
as a bitter
pill
to swallow

you
are
as it is
wallow (ing)
