Loves Breach

“Tis pain not concern, life in earth hath become off as vague scorn. 
      The poison of asp drips ahead of her tongue…her honeycomb hath dried… 

       Life sourest as wine gone wild of natural fermenting, 
       wrong of love she chose extreme delusion ere her love of truth. 
       Loose the yoke, chaotic, psychosis, strife let life's people renew.”

The first two lines made me think of Eve in the Garden of Eden, especially the "asp" dripping ahead of her tongue. However, the thought of pain being inflicted on others instead of offering concern is a chilling look at our world. There are many who find it easier to live with delusion than accept the truth. A sad, but powerful perspective on human nature, my friend. Love, Carolyn
