Dear Reader,
they say life is a gamble
so choose how you tumble,
if you fumble
it’ll bring you trouble.
I wonder,
is that true?
Should the sky’s blue
be something to hide from?
Should our feet cease to roam?
I thought, thought, thought,
what are our chances
of beating the odds?
Should we cast our glances
in the direction of gods?
What gods? Whose gods?
If i may ask.
Gods whose priests
wear animal faces for a mask?
Gods wose proximity
is the beards length?
Or gods who are to us
a mystery?
Black gods or white gods
blue gods or snout nosed gods?
A big divide indeed
who we worship,
how we worship.
God turned warship
instead of his children unite.
In totality I seek answers.
All I get are questions.
like;
Why are you so sad?
Why are you so bad?
What! Are you mad?
I DON’T KNOW.
When did our world
stop being ours?
Where did the striking beauty
Ms. Love go to?
Why did the value of ink
affect the letter writer
in that the written word
lost it’s immortal glow?
Dear reader,
help me understand
your mind and mine.
Make it easy for me to read
the authenticity of your smile.
Ms Love has many daughters
enough for you and I,
all bearers of the same surname.
Can’t we live together
forever and ever
sharing the glowing ember
that keeps our party
warm in the night.
The warmth not just
for the bearers of might?
How?
Not that question again.
For my very good friend Irma, our many questions still no answers.

Stanley – so true!
But if we stop asking….then we won’t get answers at all!
