Extravagance Squandered

Extravagance Squandered David J Walker Each in its own bubble as A singular life Clinging together in a Mountain of dirty detergent Flowing on turbulent rivers as A not so well thought out experiment Meant to cleanse it poisons and Pollutes everything it touches but The bubbles meld and grow Eventually exploding into nothing With nothing to show but The residue of extravagance squandered

... Hi David. I like the 'thought bubble'. To be inspired this beautifully while washing up denotes a worthwhile day. Adept sentiment, we should seek a more authentic source of fulfillment.
