.

Stop worrying the future

like a clock that will not tick

fast or tock the way you

desire.

.

Experience is wanting

and worry can not help

any venture excel absent

appropriate skills when

he wants to excel but 

is forced to angle toward

dreamless walks.

.

Wish and will away. Stumble

head long into the map of a fate

not yours. Yes, that is your muse

whispering a rather different 

destination from your shoulder.

Oh I love this. I had to read

Oh I love this. I had to read it three times real slow before I got a big something from it.  This was the first line that got me... 

"when he

wants to excel but

is forced to angle

toward the dreamless

wall."

 

 

Great line..

Loved it.


...and he asked her, "do you write poetry? Because I feel as if I am the ink that flows from your quill."

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "

Yes Respected Mm Allets I fully agree with nightlight

Yes Respected Mm Allets I fully agree with nightlight... forced to angle because "karma" is not poetry writing. There is no "dream" of "goal" in "karma" BTW Karma helps demolish all walls within the ignorant mind. ~~ a~dabbler~in~the~alphabets
