Questions and Ramblings

Why do those bold proclamations 

So kind to the masses 

Step over ones who have been there, forever 

Perhaps too familiar 

Too blind 

Rolled under excuses of life 

Polite bantering 

Careful rumbling of feathers on fire 

Splintered innuendo 

Flutters in springtime 

Birds on a high wire 

Brain storm in tow 

Ageless questions 

No right or wrong answers 

Foundation crumbles with mixed sand and little bits of rocks 

Washed from the seashore 

Left on dry land 

It wasn't a promise 

Not that it mattered 

Rather a thought 

That dared to hope...

~~ wow... what a stunning piece of writing... ~~ for me, this piece is powerful, thought-provoking, vivid and very skilfully written... ~~ at a philosophical level, it reminds me of how most of us... including me... keep evolving on an on-going basis... trying at all times to be balanced... and yet tripping... and slipping... and falling... ~~ and still... holding on to the aspiration of wanting to lead a more meaningful life... ~~ sometimes... i think the greatest challenge is to not turn cynical despite some rather harsh experiences... ~~ p.s. "feathers on fire" is an instance of gorgeous alliteration... i'm likely to remember this poem as the "feathers on fire" poem...
