REALITY'S GAUNTLET

Folder: 
JOURNAL #22

perfection

construction

and scheme

place before me

each their challenge

and I shall attempt

to conquer them all

one by one

with yet another

heart felt dream

I love originality so much

even though my many too long winded works

may not so readily show it

which pales me to wonder

what would the night be without the moon

and all her entourage of stars

all set adrift to romantically glow

a very lonely place

no doubt

as life is irony

that breaths and laughs

we its gangly crutches

that only manage to trip up and

hinder its steady progress........
