Whittle away at stone
or at wood
carving the shape
in your mind
Imposing your will
if it does any good
even though you're deaf dumb
and blind
Man against man
man versus machine
man and woman
entwined
Grasping at art
the person you've been
maybe not happy, or giving
or kind
Coming the day
when paradigm strikes
and like a bolt through
your brain
You'll comprehend fail
like a wreck in the night
all of those feelings
and more
will remain

Conflict only leads
too more conflict :(
