30/M A dyad comprises two jolly lines of ten syllables, each line spaced into five. A logos is playful rhetoric exploring the nature of an abstract word and its meaning.
The fall of a great tree has the power to take down others. A clearing is made in the forest and new life fills the space.

A drop of ink does not need stirring to be diffused in water. A drop of ink becomes concentrated when the water evaporates.

Rain does not fall forever but where it is stopped, there it continues. Trees will not grow forever but when they die, death is not the end.

A small pebble is placed in the stream. The pebble is carried away. A large pebble is placed in the stream. The water flows around it.

Too lost to turn back.     Time covers its tracks.     Voices go unheard,     stolen in the wind.

As chaos abounds,     I look to the dark and distant grey clouds.      Their weight is with me.

Dyad - 101 -
My eyes are heavy, drawn into the ground. Moisture gathers, forms a drop on my nose. Knackered, bowed and kneeling, I knit my brow and wonder where the unknown, west road goes. When I raise my hanging head, I feel for the strength to rise up, stand and carry on. I have looked inwards to see through the fog because the signs that guide me have gone. It is a struggle to walk in the mud, Whilst cold and weary, with my clothes sodden. My thoughts are hazy but a strong heart should not fail me. My faith is not forgotten. Aimlessly dragging hope alongside despair, a feeling leads me, I do not know where.

The veins of the earth,     the rivers flowing, the aspects of you     filling my spaces.

it is cold then hot                     so quickly it is tough it is hard                     but melts with heat it tings it taps and                 knocks      about                              the surfaces                     of the kitchen worktop              these are properties that stir tea it is cold then hot                     so quickly it is cool it is calm                     but bends under pressure it sings it raps and                 talks      about                               the textures                               of existence              these are properties that stir me
