instant karma

 

I asked for the power of a rhetorical question
a resounding yes returned
no possibly not
ah the beautiful uncertainty of doubt
so soundly reviled
had I but asked for identity to speak
had I but not spoken
thought a minute about the next seven generations
thought a minute
had I known
courage looks inside hearts
before diving into mirrors
to become someone else
had I not closed my eyes
before stepping on fertile ground
had I been anybody but I

    you give nothing away but your words… that in itself is a blessing… how I envision the scene, the static of emotion… a blessing indeed

    ~Thanks Enreal, sometimes I think I give everything away, and it becomes too much to take
