Epiom of Truth

...And then the shedding of the realism's dream,
it's loose follicles scattered loosely abroad;
we travelers leave a little piece behind,
skin, eye lash, dream;
...it is the memory that survives.

It is cast drifting in wind, your particles;
kissing your passerby, your followers,
we share ourselves with all who dwell,
those who hate, only hate themselves.

Very deeply spoken...I agree with Sara on the last line.

That last line is a great insight..Enjoyed reading this afternoon...Thanks for stopping by..I don't know which would be worse the mosquitoes or the leeches..Since leeches have a capacity to hold more blood, they might be worse but if enough mosquitoes are there one can die from them also...Sara
