Nevermind

how much truth could our world contain ~ all of it until the humans came 

so how much lies do we contain ~ none whatsoever we pass on blame 

then how much balance does god contain ~ that depends more or less the same 

these monokus are pointless and lame ~ no just vagaries of my brain

Thank you Gary, they do take a little figuring out, I was probably lucky this one was coming together nicely, so I kept pushing for another line, but sometimes they fail miserably and end up in the bin, cheers David

You bet I do Andrea, now and then I try to string them along, ups the ante, but can be worth it, cheers David

Ah, David. I do love it when a person ruminates on the grander questions of life. Enjoyed your musings.

Thank you Milton, the story of my life, summed up in 4 Monokus, and in the end just vagaries, but it’s a start, cheers David
