SEEDS OF SUCH ACCURATE GUESS

Folder: 
JOURNAL #22

we are all but models

in God's great gallery

professional spirits

placed

in such amateurish bodies

complex simplicity

born unto free will

mights own simplistic purity

the human idea of the harbor seal

much more dangerous than they first

appear

yet the soul's candlelight burns by far

far brighter than any ray of sunlight

that has ever shone upon any millennium

since the dawning of time itself

yet still violence grips man so strongly

in the palm of its far too prosperous hand

where the world's pacifist's may rely on

misfortune's expected accuracy

I, myself personally tend to choose

mine enemies quite well

and always on my own carefully recited terms

whatever the unfolding events

inciting me to better behave

I again pick up this

by far too demanding pen

and venture to write

via my otherwise distanced soul

about all that I hear and see..........

(Dec. 4, 1999)
