Lines drawn on water


Blessings of over-dwelling, resistance to acceptance
The race line ends nothing more than the first round
Continuous marathons with no umpire
The amazing realities of self-inflicted pains caused by the mirror within
Walking in bright alleys, shadow at home to reflect on past hours
The beginning of concluded events, rigorous review of dossiers always on replay
Deliberate diagnosis of no symptoms
The mind has the power to press on pause
The key to unique fatigue; the request for exorcism
Parallel lines drawn on fasting flowing water
Move closer and see!
But there is nothing there…. all gone with time while the clock paused

The Gambler

One of the things that confused me was the balance between first impression and second chances, I probably would have delayed on decisions a few times because I honestly didn’t understand how both scenarios play, a far left situation or open mindedness required the embrace of both? Maybe conclusions are not conclusive, maybe full stops don’t really end sentences as the end of a paragraph doesn’t always translate to the end of the narrative. Time is easier told when both clock hands are on the same digit, confusion really don’t exist if there is a balance, my problem all along has always been imbalance, myopic vision maybe, the type with experience as the known corrective lens. As the years rolled by, I have embraced the gambler’s mind, my cards are not as important as the cards others show and the next round is always pregnant with promise. A gambler knows that cards follow little or no logic, its chance and opportunity, what is presented is inferior to what is n...
