Words to the wise!

Seek the darkness-

When you begin your journey…

Into the benighted tunnel!

That light at the end-

Will not astound you anymore!

Seek that warmth within you-

When the world goes frigid and cold…

The withered spirit of the last battle!

And a lost caravan!

This warmth shall make you bold!

Do not hitch your wagons-

Anymore to stars-

But to the dust-

Where you bloomed from!

In the rear!

Expect to not to expect!

For, life is not always about-

Floating with those streams!

Neither against them!

But to- seek that solace-

Amidst the crippled you!

Indeed is a two cents’ worth…
