The cost of boastful carelessness

The price of a secret exposed

The consequential holy mess

that only bravado knows.

 

 

 

 

 

Believe in a fantasist at your peril

Be swayed into enticing false hope.

But be sure when it all goes tups up,

alone, you will have to cope.

At the forefront of ones memory

are times of sheer exhilaration and

times of harrowing pain.

The flotsum and jetsum in the middle,

like a sponge, soaks up the mundane.

Let nature be free to survive at will

No good can become of any mass kill

Who decides when there should be a cull?

Who’s hardened heart, can the trigger pull?

If birth came with a guarantee

that one would live to be ninety three.

What extra joy there’d be in store,

to beat the odds, and reach ninety four.

 

 

 

 

 

Today is the tomorrow one wastes

yearning for yesterday.

A life lived as planned

should be considered a

fortunate hand.

A frown says more than a million words.

Eyes wide open, set alarm bells ringing.

A shake of the head from left to right

says ‘to little hope, one is clinging.

Hard times produce

creativity and thrift.

Awakening a survival

mechanism, that

 would otherwise be

left free to drift.

Doing nothing isn’t advisable.

Something won’t just appear out of the blue.

The input you contribute will be immeasurable.

Go forth and develop pastures new.
