Continuation without meaning, meaning Lacking merit, chains whose warders have Long since deserted Fallen prey to common gestures There is no editorial for these thoughts Of sound mind and sight body we Press on Some say it is the chlorophyll that keeps leaves Green I know it to be hope I know, should hope grow tires and fail To recognize her surroundings, leaves Will drain to brown with Worry I challenge you, try to understand Walk in the depressions left by the others Feel their breath fueling your thoughts but Keep them your own, always and Forever your own, even as Forever deflates and sags inward, a Shadow of its former self Reason, everything's about reason but to what Ends, for what purpose and why? A reason Will not bring people together A reason Cannot solve a problem A reason, a stupid ******* reason Can't do much of anything at all What is it for? What Do we seek to justify somehow with this Talk of talking we need Three-dimensional speaking we need Spheres of understanding not this Circle we ride in silence without so much as a Remark about the unchanging landscape Fallacies will be present in all walks of life, hell In every stone witnessed in all walks of life, Hell, Everywhere And to dwell on them is to play the fool to Succumb to defeat to rise above all we Know and realize there is nothing else but Cascading color waterfalls and this nub of a pencil Nothing crucial, no time for time when It all is so vibrant, yet reflections adore Our world because we invite them even As we recognize the harm done, still welcome Views built on the backs of the long dead and Idealistic initial impressions of a Flower before the wind steals it from the Tangles of your hair and gifts pedals to The breeze

Stolen Flower
