Inshallah

Some people work and become wealthy, Others do the same and remain poor.
Marraige fills one with energy. Another it drains. Don't trust ways.
They change. A means flails about like a donkey's tail. Always add the gratitude clause, if God wills. Then proceed.
You maybe leading a donkey no, a goat, no, who can tell? We sit in a dark pit
and think we're home. We pass around delicacies, Poisoned bait. You think this
is preachy double-talk? Those who donot breathe the God willing phrase live in a collective blindness. Rubbing their eyes in the dark, they ask, "Who's there?"

Walking the highway

Walking on the highway, where the cars rush by, the trucks gruntle and the scooties cry out loud. The lights tremble and shiver with the chill of the flashing sparks...hoping the flash would dim a little and let the spark be alot more gentler.

However, nothing happens. I keep walking and the light keeps travelling. Different sounds, different voices, different beliefs forming a new perceptual revelation.

I keep walking.
