Through the Grapevine

They flow like a flooded stream,

like melting snow on a warm winter day.

 

Too easily, because

they pierce unseeing targets,

victims of a slip

of a thoughtless thought.

 

To the distracted mind,

they can be rendered obsolete,

but when that is all one

see's,

   hears,

      feels,

the damage can be unsurmountable.
