Meet and Miss

The first leisure light of life forms a face From that moment faces you cannot flee. From the door knob to the last lazy click Face’ seem to fill your days till the last date. Though plenty they are, plenty tag along. Each lazy door drags legs you can’t ignore. Many add to the list of we-met-once. Many make the movie’s list more than once. Many a glue will lead to gross paths blind. Many a glue will give light to paths bright. Many a glue will grow into glued blights. Many a glue will ease the groans of life. Which eager face will bring the bright relief? And which extra head will the neck bless? Faces alone that gaze to the same next And heads alone that bear the same beliefs. To filter such burdens from blessings One must have only a single plain path, One must have a heart open and stony, One must keep moving with a clear map.
