The Downward Spiral Of The Learning Curve: 5 Poems
30 June, 2009
Author: Colin Stewart
Weather patterns may come and go.
The migrating birds always know.
The changing seasons put on a yearly show
but human empathy takes time to grow!
--
They seem to stop before our peak
and betray a mind that's always weak
as men are unaware of what we seek
so exactly what language do they speak?
--
You soon realize that you're not alone
and as a social animal we're all prone
to seek salvation in a crowded place
with every other member of the human race!
--
It's noticeable by your trembling lip
that fear continues a merciless grip
on your appeal and it's considerable flex
with members of the opposite sex!
--
The speaker in question was burdened by grief.
His syntax was mangled beyond belief
as colloquial abuse offered no relief
until he gained a mouthful of teeth!

| Ms salvation (187.42.108.62) -- Thursday, July 2 2009, 02:37 am I guess that seeking salvation in a crowded place leads to nowhere...As a matter of fact i do believe that the salvation( if i can say so)can't last longer... |
