Seasons pass as tendencies fall Tripping over laws that order societal resolve A laughing matter not for the victims assailants never caught Consuming thoughts processed opposite happy holidays Timely reminders of days with doubt of faith Following what remnants of personality are left In remembrance to the passing of a seasons embrace Changing of tides gradual yearly overflow Floating precariously upon the viscous layer that is ground level Humid are the days within this worlds corrupted bubble Popped superficially the seams of jeans without repair Airy and light the right direction for health is to share Open up the closed door that bridges only hope That shines us through the night filled days Trials our tasks that drift us to part different ways As the tearing of our eyes judge loosing growth Never giving up knowledge in search of what is to be believed Minds expanses with infinite possibilities wants needs to reach To gain the sponge of absorption an advantage rarely sought Fill to leak what we read sharing the truth that speaks with free thought A literal fantasy that unravels all destinies Untied are the shoes that do trip over no thing Imaginary is the divide that conquers our mind Faced with a message to seek ourselves and find The laughter designed to wrap us in figurative speech Leeching opinion outward most personal belief Revolting awareness currents honest denial The waste collected to be filed in the system since a child 'I Started A Joke' Contest Sponsored by Maria Williams

At first, I must start to select; Find things that can be correct; Poems read few; A picture drew; All were perfect if I recollect. Jim Horn
