Liquidation

Subliminal

Don't plan your life, just let it flow

flow with the tide to reach the sea.

You'll see a many banks on your way

banks on which there are large cities.

Banks with rocks and trees that shade

banks with sprawling wide space,

Cluster of nameless hamlets, villages

people bathing in leisure and haste.

Banks with factories and mills

raising black sooty smoke;

Banks that get deep

into waters till

they are no more.

You'll find

yourself

in the clouds--

Up above

the sky--

Getting ready

to return again

From where

you once began.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Banks and having accounts  are no sure securities in our lives.

Interesting shape. I wouldn't have believed you would have gone for the mushroom cloud. Nice poem with a little subtle sinisterism...yeah I know it isn't really a word...poetic license. LOL.

Peace
