Chronic
Pain and illness, distress...
death are you sweeter to the life
in poor quality?
Smile in the face of persecution,
Laugh to keep the tears balanced in the eye socket.
Block the river's course with determination of will.
Varied circumstances, varied emotions
Bubbling over the life of the giver into another's moat.
The moat may be full or arid.
Bubblings may not be welcome, on this day.
Return again, my friends and try to gain access
Across this moat.
Welcome may come.
